New E-Waste Recycling Laws Begin

[HardOCP News]

A new law, two years in the making, will finally hold British producers and importers of electronic goods responsible for the recycling of their products.

The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive requires 4kg of "e-waste" to be recycled per person. Manufacturers have to fund recycling schemes, while retailers must offer take-back services to customers.
