1. Use of Upcycled Materials

Justification: The tissue holder is made from upcycled materials, which involves repurposing waste or discarded items into new products. This practice reduces the demand for virgin materials, thereby conserving natural resources and reducing environmental impact. Scientific Explanation: Upcycling minimizes the energy and resource consumption associated with the extraction and processing of raw materials. By using existing materials, the energy-intensive processes involved in manufacturing new materials are avoided, leading to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions (Lebreton et al., 2012). This process also reduces landfill waste, which can contribute to methane emissions if organic waste decomposes anaerobically (Gomiero et al., 2011).

2. Handwoven Craftsmanship

Justification: The tissue holder is handwoven, a process that typically requires less energy compared to mechanized manufacturing methods. Handcrafting also often involves local artisans, reducing the need for transportation and associated emissions. Scientific Explanation: Handcrafting generally uses less energy because it avoids the use of large machines and industrial processes that consume significant amounts of electricity and fossil fuels. Additionally, local production minimizes transportation emissions, which contribute to the carbon footprint (Dunne et al., 2015).

3. Durable Design

Justification: The tissue holder’s design emphasizes durability and longevity. Products designed to last longer reduce the need for frequent replacements, thereby lowering overall resource consumption and waste generation. Scientific Explanation: Durable products help extend the lifecycle of materials, which can significantly reduce the environmental impact associated with the production and disposal of consumer goods (Lloyd and Lyttle, 2013). Extended product life means fewer resources are used for manufacturing replacements, and less waste is generated over time.

4. Minimal Processing and Treatment

Justification: The tissue holder’s design likely involves minimal processing and treatment of materials, which avoids the use of harmful chemicals and reduces environmental pollution. Scientific Explanation: Reduced processing minimizes the use of chemical treatments and synthetic additives that can contribute to pollution and environmental degradation. Chemical treatments often involve energy-intensive processes and can lead to hazardous by-products (Barton, 2012).

5. Low Transportation Footprint

Justification: If the tissue holder is produced locally and sold within the same region, transportation-related emissions are significantly reduced. Scientific Explanation: Local production and consumption reduce the need for long-distance transportation, which is a major contributor to the carbon footprint of products. Transportation, particularly by fossil fuel-powered vehicles, is responsible for substantial greenhouse gas emissions (Hertwich, 2005).
