Somehow, I never got an idea like this...
It is actually interesting to know that planned obsolescence is something companies do, watch the above video for better explanation. However, here I thought to share how crazy it is atleast for me to note or learn that the companies are planning and developing obsolete products.
When companies like Apple, are trying to come-up with new product mostly every year with a little difference, consumers/users are buying them as they are driven by the need or company plan.
Somehow this created a thought about the circular economy, most of the current gadgets are not properly replaced, so hence it is need of the hour to discontinue planned obsolescence and rather come up with better products, I know as mentioned in the video they are being enforced by some laws. But, it is important to take big steps before we get into big pit of material scarcity we will witness.
Circular Economy is the way
