well, your country badly needs a tougher implementation of waste disposal law.

ka edong: ahhh… can be classified as e-waste pero if someone in Pinas can buy a cheaper re-furbished phone (e yun ang ma-afford nya), I have nothing against that. ewan ko nga lang what the people from greenpeace would say about that. when i was younger, we used to have a computer shop in greenhills and a lot of the parts are “recycled” kasi kinakahoy yung old ones. so…

mr nice ash: since I moved to Europe, wala na akong e-waste. mas magarbo mga tao sa pinas at kalalakas mag palit ng phone. hehe.

most probably DO recycle and just give it away. for the few who really do throw things away, I can safely assume that most of them are not aware that there is another way to dispose e-waste.

“orange” labeled? ano yon?

i used to work in the same building as nokia (philamlife tower). They had a recycling bin for old batteries and for old cellphones.

I was about to drop in my wife’s old nokia battery, but my officemate asked for it instead.

The Nokia recycle bins were always empty. I’m wondering if that’s good (people like my officemate recycle) or if that’s bad (nobody bothers to use the recycle bin).

Parting shot: So many refurbished “orange” labelled phones in Greenhills!
