A local civic organization has asked you to give a luncheon presentation about planned obsolescence. Rather than pursuing a negative approach by talking about how businesses exploit customers through planned obsolescence, you have decided to talk about the benefits of producing products that do not last forever. Please respond to the following:
• Identify and explain three to five benefits of producing products that do not last forever.
• Select three products that planned obsolescence could be used in the future and explain your rationale.
• On the other side of the issue (even though not in your presentation), describe how businesses exploit customers through planned obsolescence.
