28． （6分）In the United States alone，over 100million cell﹣phones are thrown away each
year．Cell﹣phones are part of a growing mountain of electronic waste like computers and
personal digital assistants．The electronic waste stream is increasing three times faster than
traditional garbage as a whole．
Electronic devices contain valuable metals such as gold and silver．A Swiss study reported that
while the weight of electronic goods represented by precious metals was relatively small in
comparison to total waste，the concentration （含量） of gold and other precious metals was
higher in So﹣called e﹣waste than in naturally occurring minerals．

Electronic wastes also contain many poisonous metals．Even when the machines are recycled
and the harmful metals removed，the recycling process often is carried out in poor countries，
in practically uncontrolled ways which allow many poisonous substances to escape into the
environment．
Creating products out of raw materials creates much more waste material，up to 100times
more，than the material contained in the finished products．Consider again the cell﹣phone，
and imagine the mines that produced those metals，the factories needed to make the box and
packaging（包装） it came in．Many wastes produced in the producing process are harmful as
well．
The U．S．Environmental Protection Agency notes that most waste is dangerous in that"the
production，distribution，and use of products﹣as well as management of the resulting waste﹣
all result in greenhouse gas release．"Individuals can reduce their contribution by creating less
waste at the start﹣for instance，buying reusable products and recycling．
In many countries the concept of extended producer responsibility is being considered or has
been put in place as an incentive （动机） for reducing waste．If producers are required to
take back packaging they use to sell their products，would they reduce the packaging in the first
place？
Governments'incentive to require producers to take responsibility for the packaging they
produce is usually based on money．Why，they ask，should cities or towns be responsible for
paying to deal with the bubble wrap （气泡垫） that encased your television？
From the governments'point of view，a primary goal of laws requiring extended producer
responsibility is to transfer both the costs and the physical responsibility of waste management
from the government and tax﹣payers back to the producers．
