"Mr President, I would particularly like to compliment the rapporteur, not only on his good work in this important area – though it may not be the sexiest in the world, it is of great importance to citizens – but also for the wonderful, practical explanation he gave of the work being carried out, especially as regards emphasising the need for a less costly transition and protection of the environment and human health, and also for pointing out that five tonnes of mercury seep into the environment every year. Obviously something needs to be done about that and, thanks to his good work and that of the committee, this is now being addressed.
My two expert colleagues behind me spoke about power tools and the need for these to be upgraded and improved by looking at the contents of their batteries. One thing I would like to stress is that we need to place more emphasis on recycling because many batteries are just being dumped. While people are actually very conscientious when it comes to recycling paper, glass and the like, they are not aware of the need to recycle batteries."@en1
