I get a little mad every time I ear about IKEA environment concerns.
Traditionally made furniture could last for hundred years, finished with beeswax linseed oil, or something similar. You can easily sand and reapply finish, you can easily reglue a broken part. And when everything goes wrong with an old piece of furniture... you've got firewood.
IKEA furniture is built to last just enought time, it's full of composite materials that for sure are really hard to recycle.
This is the same BS speach as Apple not providing a charger.
If you want to provide greener solutions, provide things that can last longer, are easy repairable and upgradable. It will hurt your profits because you won't be able to shove as many products down the consumers throats, but that's the way it has to be.
