We saw the publication on Friday Oct 6 2023 of this EC recommendation (non-binding) about the need to improve the rate of return of used and waste small digital devices<\/a>. Interesting but practical?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That message: Dear member states, it is clear we have a problem, and there are many ways, so please do something about it<\/em>, looks futile. Reuse and recycling critically depend on take-back. We need binding and effective measures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The EC attitude of taking a look and just sending a reminder is welcome but a pity and irritating when there are binding ways<\/a>. We appreciate the recommendation by Commissioner V. Sinkevi\u010dius<\/a>, but as As V. Ferrer said, \u00abMisery and suffering are not meant to be understood, but to be solved\u00bb<\/em>. While politics moves slowly and carefully, climate change and environmental degradation is accelerating. Let’s solve this ASAP by moving forward to the next logical step: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We need EU-wide binding e-device return objectives and effective measures to do so, as mentioned in the recommendation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
