Obviously the ideal is to reduce "disposable" waste and we have lived 6000+ years as homo-sapiens without most of this modern stuff. I like the idea I heard about in a European country (sorry, forgotten which), where there is a disposal tax paid on all goods by the manufacturer so that the removal of waste is already paid for and doesn't require people to fly-tip etc. This is presumably a nice financial incentive for people to make better packaging to reduce their tax and therefore their sale prices.
