      <description>1)Start to write down all that you know, including your guesses (= your hypotheses) about each part (box) of your project/business idea.
2)Identify your riskiest assumption. If you have a new project/business idea, you will probably need to start with Box A. Do you genuinely understand your customers´ underlying needs?
3)Start the experiment to derisk your riskiest assumption and to validate your hypotheses.
4)Keep on until all your hypotheses are validated and you have either found a sound project/ business model, pivot, or concluded that you better do something else.  </description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>&nbsp;Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is a policy approach under which producers are given a significant responsibility – financial and/or physical – for the treatment or disposal of post-consumer products. Assigning such responsibility could in principle provide incentives to prevent wastes at the source, promote product design for the environment and support the achievement of public recycling and materials management goals. Within the OECD the trend is towards the extension of EPR to new products, product groups and waste streams such as electrical appliances and electronics.</div>]]></description>

The wastes that could have been in the dumpsites or bodies of water would be turned into clothes or other materials instead. Moreover, a study showed that compared to regular polyester, rPET requires less energy and produces less CO2 emissions. These environmental benefits would be advantageous to the general population since it can help in reducing the health problems that comes with pollution. Lastly, the success of this project can provide job opportunities and encourage people to recycle and also to come up with more innovative ideas of solving the waste management problem.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>
