This one is planned but not yet written — what follows is a note on what it will cover. Modules 1 and 2 are complete, and Module 1 is the best place to start reading.

Coming soon. This lesson will walk the waste hierarchy for electronics — refuse, reduce, reuse, repair, refurbish, recycle, recover, dispose — and explain why reuse beats recycling by such a wide margin, using embodied energy.
