The Challenges of Environmental Services

• Import and Export of Waste

• Global reinforcement of legislation

• Participation on the development of local environmental laws and regional - global initiatives such us WEEE & Basel Convention (StEP)

• Information provision to support the development of policies, legislation and markets based on the evident economic cost of environmentalactions.

• ISO 14001 & ISO 18001 must be part of the normal expectations for service providers.

• Support to the development of a CO2 Market through standardisation of

measurement methods and helping to reflect the economic cost of emissions.

Introducing a responsible global supply chain management code by encouraging industry suppliers and other stakeholder’s choices to be responsible and sympathetic to conflict-affected and high-risk areas, can:

•Avoid the rising demand on limited natural mineral resources, •Support developing countries to raise economic growth through proactively respecting human rights and contributing to the care for environment.

Closing the loopICT Recycled materials can be use to generate brand new

products within the Telecommunications industry or other

products , to plumbing or even jewelry.

End of Life Management Opportunities …Towards a Sustainable Industry

A Sustainable Industry

Reinserting recovered recycled precious and rare metals from unwanted ICT equipment to the supply chain, can also:

•Reduce the demand for rear metals on the manufacturing stage of ICT equipment.

•Ensure a clean supply chain and reduces the demand on limited natural resources, which is auditable, measurable and tractable.

•Reduce production costs of brand new products and the possibility of influence customer’s purchasing power by offering a product that is verifiably conflict-free.

The Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development, OECD introduced the Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of

Mineral as a voluntary proactive initiative.

How to turn a Challenge into an

Opportunity?

• Integrated efforts through products life cycle and by taking responsibility over all Life Cycle Stages

• Responsibly assuming our “Due To Care”

• Making responsible decisions regarding delegation of services

• Participation & Reporting

• Legislation reinforced globally

• Closing the loop!
