The not-for-profit stated that the drafted bill proposes that the country electrify all its vehicles but fails to consider where the materials needed will come from.<\/p>\n<p>Devices such as mobile phones and laptops rely on lithium, cobalt and copper for their power. However, Friends of the Earth has claimed that due to \u201cinadequate\u201d waste management systems, these materials are often discarded instead of being reused or recycled. It stated that less than 1% of lithium is recycled.<\/p>\n<p>According to the charity, much of this material comes from mines in the Global South, in countries such as Chile, the Philippines and the Democratic Republic of Congo. Friends of the Earth claimed these countries \u201cexploit local communities, create pollution and increase carbon emissions\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.letsrecycle.com\/news\/campaigners-push-for-transitional-materials-in-scottish-circular-economy-bill\/\">Let&#8217;s Recycle<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/6-536\/\">Campaigners push for \u2018transitional materials\u2019 in Scottish Circular Economy bill<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[575,10500,434,1162],"class_list":["post-131868","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-global-south","tag-legislation","tag-scotland"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/131868","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=131868"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/131868\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=131868"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=131868"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=131868"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
