New regulations on recycling of electrical products.

[Eryri]

MEPs have demanded higher EU recovery targets for electrical waste, now seen as a significant source of toxic pollution.

European Parliament debate

Not only will it reduce the severity of pollution in electrical goods, but it will also set better standards so electrical waste is easier to recycle.

Interesting. Not a bad idea although I thought that for most electronics stuff, the requirements were already pretty stringent. Sounds fairly simple - don't use anything in manufacture unless you know how to recycle it!
