The energy cost that would apply to Edwin, but not to Eleanor, is the cost of processing the bottle after it was no longer used. This is because Edwin recycles the bottle, which involves processing, while Eleanor simply throws it away, which does not incur the same energy costs associated with recycling.
Use the scenario to answer the question.
Edwin buys a water bottle, reuses it twice, and then recycles it. Eleanor buys a water bottle, reuses it twelve times, and then throws it away.
Which energy cost would apply to Edwin, but not to Eleanor?
