Exercise 1

Do you think that manufacturers of computers, television sets, cell phones, and other electronic products ( Core Case Study ) should be required to take their products back at the end of their useful lives for repair, remanufacture, or recycling in a manner that is environmentally responsible and that does not threaten the health of recycling workers? Explain. Would you be willing to pay more for these products to cover the costs of such a take-back program? If so, what percentage more per purchase would you be willing to pay for these products?
