Story: Government warning over hazardous IT waste
Posted by: Marco (Friday 24 June 2005, 5:55 PM)
I think the best solution is to get IT suppliers and escpecially shops to start collecting broken, old and no longer wanted computer equipment.
The government should force (if nessecary) these suppliers to be willing to accept electronic equipment and send if off for recycling, however I do not believe forcing shops would be nessecary as I'm sure places like PC World would be quite willing to have customers come to their shop to drop off old equipment (and maybe buy some new stuff while their there).
