While I agree with the point you are making, it must be noted that garbage is not "dumped", like someone is throwing stuff across a wall. I am sure Poland is paid lots of money to take the garbage.
- ed_balls 7y agoThere should be a ban on exports, unless it is proven they are recycled. You buy garbage from Germany to recycle in Poland. You store it in some field temporarily, before the recycling. You set them on fire, getting rid of the problem. To avoid liability you blame the badly recycled trash e.g. candles. Now it's hard to do in Poland, since the regulations have changed, but I bet you could pull it off in Ukraine.

- bitL 7y agoThey pay some peanuts to Polish companies that dump the garbage onto some green field where it "accidentally catches fire". German green stats go up considerably, Polish people get cancer. Are you sure MS is going to enforce their "carbon-negative" approach all the way down into their supply chain? If there is no word from them on this, I can only consider it a PR move without any substance, orchestrated by some M7 MBAs, nothing else.
