Abstract

The article reports that even after two years of the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) disposal rules coming into force, Great Britain trails the rest of Western Europe. A research by supplier Dell Computer Corp. found that 13 percent of British consumers do not recycle electrical goods at all, more than four times the figure in Germany. Jean Cox-Kearns, European recycling and take-back manager at Dell says that Great Britain has always been behind on this issue.
