Industry attitudes towards ecodesign standards for improved resource efficiency
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an interview study with people in Nordic industries related to new eco-design requirements to generate recycling and resource efficiency, and the results of the interview study are shown that most interviewees were positive towards eco design rules that improve product durability and enable more recycling, but less favorable towards requirements on recycled content, longer consumer guarantees, and requirements on maximum disassembly time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Implementing Individual Producer Responsibility for Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment through Improved Financing
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present two alternative approaches to calculate charges for products sold by producers by classifying them according to their eventual end-of-life treatment requirements and cost, which can financially reward improved design, allocate costs of historic waste proportionately (on the basis of tonnes of new products sold), and provide sufficient financial guarantees against future waste costs and liabilities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extended Producer Responsibility for Lamps in Nordic Countries: best practices and challenges in closing material loops
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the EPR systems for gas discharge lamps in the Nordic countries and found that the performance of lamp EPR is generally still high, despite some differences in approach and structure of the systems, but there remain opportunities for further improvement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effectiveness of extended producer responsibility policies implementation: The case of Portuguese and Spanish packaging waste systems
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the implementation of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) policies for the packaging waste in two later European adopter countries of waste management policies: Portugal and Spain.
Design Incentives Under Collective Extended Producer Responsibility: A Network Perspective
TL;DR: This paper looks for cost allocation mechanisms in a collective EPR implementation that provide at least as effective design incentives as those induced by an individual system benchmark, while ensuring voluntary participation of producers (i.e. satisfying group incentive compatibility).

Black's Law Dictionary
TL;DR: The 7th edition of the Black's Law Dictionary as discussed by the authors is the most comprehensive, authoritative, scholarly, and accessible American law dictionary ever published, and it has a strong reputation as a legal reference tool for the 21st century.

What Do We Know About Metal Recycling Rates
Thomas E. Graedel,Julian M. Allwood,Jean-Pierre Birat,Matthias Buchert,Christian Hagelüken,Barbara K. Reck,Scott F. Sibley,Guido Sonnemann +7 more
TL;DR: The recycling of metals is widely viewed as a fruitful sustainability strategy, but little information is available on the degree to which recycling is actually taking place as discussed by the authors, which is a concern.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficient Take-Back Legislation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the economic and environmental impacts of extended producer responsibility type of legislation and identify efficiency conditions, and show that the right policy would (i) make producers responsible for their own waste to avoid fairness concerns and (ii) favor eco-design producers to create stronger environmental benefits.
Journal ArticleDOI
Environmental impact assessment: a review
TL;DR: A survey of the growth in the use of EIA during the 1970s in Western industrialized economies, Third World countries and international agencies is presented in this paper, where the focus of future development should be directed towards a more cost-effective "tiered" system of environmental impact assessment.
Journal ArticleDOI
RFID-based product information in end-of-life decision making
TL;DR: Qualitatively it is shown qualitatively that the availability of product information has a positive impact on product recovery decisions, and how radio-frequency identification-based product identification technologies can be employed to provide the necessary information is discussed.
