      There’s an e-waste recycling fee tacked onto some electronics (TVs mostly I think) in Canada. Maybe it needs to be expanded to other things?

        If only we had a way to collect money from companies as they operate. Damn.

        Edit: I know you said in this case, but taxing companies for this makes sense and needs to be said

        if you set up something like this, they would have to pay at the time of manufacturing.
