  Recycling is better done than not, it could be drastically reduced if all household waste was of some immediate beneficial use.
  At the manufacturing stage (goods & packaging) and the retail stage (electronic equipment etc.) much could be done to short-circuit the 'cycle' of old products becoming new products.
  
  Certainly on the electronics front many of the sources of the required raw materials are being bought-up by China, by sending them our 'scrap' may leave us totally dependant upon them further down the line.
  
  I'm sure the regulations that stem from the EU are deliberately vague to encourage member states to formulate their own response. It is our response that has failed miserably.
