If recovery and preparation for reuse operations involve long-distance trips, there is a risk that the carbon footprint associated with transportation negatively impacts the environmental costs of reuse.
“If recovery and preparation for reuse operations involve long-distance trips, as some pilot sequential reuse systems currently do, there is a risk that the carbon footprint associated with transportation negatively impacts the environmental costs of reuse [15,100].”
From Characterisation and environmental value proposition of reuse models for fast-moving consumer goods: reusable packaging and products (2021) · cites this paper as [100]

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
