CORRECT ANSWER Explanation: Implementing renewable energy in production processes helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions, supporting more sustainable production practices. CORRECT ANSWER Explanation: Water conservation is crucial in reducing the strain on local water resources and protecting the surrounding ecosystems, which can be significantly affected by industrial water use. CORRECT ANSWER Explanation: Energy efficiency in manufacturing reduces the overall energy consumption and carbon emissions, contributing positively to environmental sustainability. 4. What effect does energy-efficient manufacturing have on the environment? a. Increases carbon emissions b. Reduces the overall energy use and environmental impact c. Has no impact on production costs d. Leads to faster production but more waste Incorrect answers – (a) Energy efficiency aims to reduce, not increase, carbon emissions. – (c) Typically lowers production costs due to reduced energy expenditure. – (d) Does not necessarily lead to faster production and aims to reduce waste. 5. Why is water conservation important in electronics manufacturing? a. Reduces production costs significantly b. Minimizes strain on local water sources and ecosystems c. Increases device longevity d. Improves the aesthetic quality of devices Incorrect answers – (a) While it can reduce costs, the primary benefit is environmental. – (c) Has no direct correlation with increasing device longevity. – (d) Does not affect the aesthetic aspects of devices. 6. How does the use of renewable energy in factories impact electronics production? a. Reduces greenhouse gas emissions b. Lowers product durability c. Increases waste production d. Decreases production speed Incorrect answers – (b) Does not affect the durability of the products. – (c) Aims to reduce, not increase, waste production. – (d) Does not necessarily impact the speed of production.
