The Throwaway Society:
471m recyclable small tech items thrown away each yr in the UK.
What will happen when rest of the world reaches UK/USA consumption levels?
Must educate people, have local recycling facilities. Tax corporations/rich to fund it.

@premnsikka That list is incomplete: Tax those products, hence make them more expensive. Also, clearly forbid certain practices - for example an e-cigarette simply cannot be single-use. That's insane.
Recycling is a lie. It doesn't work with relatively simple products like PET bottles, why should it work with way more complex items that contain 2-3 dozen compounds that are hard to separate.
