Kaspars Zakulis, Director of the Latvian Green Dot: “If currently 40.5% of the volume of machinery placed on the market has to be collected, then next year 65% will have to be recovered. This is a big leap in such a short period of time, but it raises the problem – there is a lot of used or unused electronics in the environment and we have to get rid of it responsibly, which we also call to do in the “Electronics Classroom”.
