Increasing energy efficiency helps to use resources more economically. But what if greater efficiency in a complex system actually uses up more energy resources overall? This video explains this paradox of energy efficiency, also known as Jevons Paradox.

These days, if you want to be environmentally conscious you gotta recycle. But is recycling really more efficient than just making new stuff? Ryan breaks it down for you and takes a look at some of the cost and energy savings of recycling.
