I suppose there would be some regulatory agency that takes samples and estimates the number of items disposed, and then levies the costs?

- ogre_codes 6y agoMuch trash is already processed before it's buried to remove recyclables regardless. I would suggest requiring some kind of RFID chip or other scannable code which can be checked in the refuse stream.
- bigfudge 6y agoIncentivise consumers by giving them a cut of the charge to manufacturers when they report trashing an item. That is, if you recycle a phone within 5 years you get £5 (or some percentage or sale price) which is charged back to the manufacturer.
