The 3 tonne, 7 metre high WEEE Man is made from the amount of waste electrical and electronic products that an average UK citizen will throw away in their lifetime. Currently most of these products go straight into landfill. From January 2006 manufactures & retailers will be responsible for recycling this waste under new EU legislation called the WEEE (Waste Electrical & Electronic Equipment) Directive.
