Friends of the Earth want changes to the Circular Economy law


Campaigners piled electrical waste outside The Scottish Parliament on Monday ahead of the final debate on a new Circular Economy law on Wednesday. 

The Friends of the Earth say MSPs need to do more to improve the way electrical waste is managed and are calling for changes in the final version of the law. 

The circular economy bill is being debated and voted on in the Scottish Parliament this week and this will be the last chance for MSPs to improve the bill. 

 Friends of the Earth Scotland are campaigning for the circular economy bill to include a plan for the materials required in the transition away from fossil fuels, many of which are also used in consumer electronics.
