[GreenYes] researching Mercedes Benz "Disassembly" factories

[eric@ecocycle.org (Eric Lombardi)]

Greetings all,

Can anyone help me in researching what exactly they did in Germany in
response to the EPR laws on cars ... I've heard stories about auto
"disassembly" factories, and even that some car redesign occurred ...
has all this been documented anywhere?

Chris: I notice that the Phase I results don't indicate what was/will be
the final disposition of the materials collected -- that is, how much
was recycled, by whom, versus how much was landfilled, and where, or how
much was destined for overseas markets. Do you plan to collect,
independently verify, and release this information later in Phase I or
in Phase II?

Information about final disposition of collected materials is obviously
vital to assessing the programs. Thanks for sharing the information so
far.

Follow the Best Buy store-logo and click on "Event Results (Dec. 5

Phase I served 2860 participants at 10 events in 7 states with over a
quarter million pounds of waste electronics were collected.

A more detailed, complete analysis of Phase I of this program will be
available in early '02. Information on Phase II of this program will be
available at a later date in 'o2.

For additional information or questions about this program, please

Thanks,
