The only 'tough' green laws we'll see will be revenue raisers. It's not like there's much public support for GP, at least it doesn't seem like it. They're still the laughable ineffective tw@s they've always been, there now to be used as a PR exercise for governments when the time is right...

I'm not even sure the electronics manufacturers actually take on board what GP are saying, just that the price difference of other materials may not outweigh the green PR/free publicity, possibly.

A simple ban on packaging that cannot be recycled or reused would solve many of the green issues. I am against taxes on consumption as these are regressive. Though some are needed. Governments need to get back to taxing the rich and wealthy first.
