Should Electronic Manufacturers Be Responsible for Recycling?

Colorado lawmakers are trying to pass a bill that would hold manufacturers responsible for ensuring their products are recycled. The bill’s purpose is to keep toxic e-waste out of landfills. In Colorado alone, over 50 tons of electronic e-waste is produced every year, but only 16 percent of it is recycled. Some of it is stored, but the remainder is dumped in landfills in the U.S. and overseas.
