Hats off to Gary Nevison and his Directive Decoder blog, which gives the expert's lowdown on WEEE, REACH, RoHS and all aspects of environmental legislation.It's a blogging century for Gary, with his most recent post being the 100th on the blog - check out "REACH fees", covering how the authorisation of substances under the REACH Regulations can be a costly business.
Other choice posts from the last month, for example, include "RoHS v REACH approach to risk" (considering how the basis for RoHS and REACH substance restrictions are quite different) and "RoHS and 'backyard' recycling" (on the hazard posed by uncontrolled recycling of e-waste sent to Asia and Africa).
Make sure you bookmark www.electronicsweekly.com/blogs/electronics-legislation/ to keep up with the next century of posts on this increasingly important subject!
