IB Design Technology Topic 2.5 Green Design Revision Notes (SL/HL)

IB Design Technology Topic 2.5 Green Design Revision Notes (SL/HL) | RevisionDojo

Green Design

Focus: Making small changes to reduce environmental impact.
How?:
- Switching to recyclable materials.
- Reducing energy use in manufacturing.
- Making products more durable.
Key Features:
- Short timescale (quick to implement).
- Low risk (small adjustments).
- Incremental changes (step-by-step improvements).

Example

A company switching from plastic to biodegradable packaging.

Green Design vs. Eco-Design

Green design
1. Making relatively small changes to reduce environmental impact.
  1. Focuses on re-engineering a product to reduce its environmental impact and increase sustainability.
2. How?:
  1. Switching to recyclable materials.
  2. Reducing energy use in manufacturing.
  3. Making products more durable.
3. Key Features:
  1. Short timescale (quick to implement).
  2. Low risk (small adjustments).
  3. Incremental changes (step-by-step improvement)
Eco-design
1. More complex approach that considers the entire lifecycle of a product and its impacts.
  1. Designing products as part of a larger system (sustainability across the entire product lifecycle)

Aspect	Green Design	Eco-Design
Focus	One or two environmental objectives	Entire lifecycle and system integration
Timescale	Short	Long
Complexity	Low	High
Risk	Low	High
