The problem of dealing with electronic waste is only growing -- businesses and consumers alike are using ever more electronics in daily life, and disposing of that waste leads to a host of potential health and environmental problems.

Other global regions -- the European Union, South Korea, and others -- have enacted wide-ranging policies to address these concerns, but the U.S. is still lagging behind. This website, compiled by Denise Griffin at the National Conference of State Legislatures, looks at the various initiatives enacted by states, industry groups, non-profits and the federal government.
