Just wondering what the policy in various places is for disposal of LED lightbulbs when they breakdown ?
Here we have a gobshite minister for the environment , who talks about how great the green revolution is and how were going to save the planet ,
yet the advice from the companies who have the contracts for private waste disposal say , low energy lightbulbs are to be thrown into landfill waste just the same as old fashioned incandesant bulbs .
We have overbearing regulations about the use of certain stuff in electronics , like for instance the rules that essentially make the opto units in compressors illegal ,
yet were dumping LED lightbulbs into the ground without a thought .
I'm thinking of writing a letter to a local member of parliment , and have them ask the minister for environment WTF is going on .
In the midst of saving energy to run data centres , were poisoning the ground under foot , this has to be ineptitude of the highest order .
