Then tax the shit out of disposable products please as we already waste way too much
Do the same thing with phones that have non-replaceable batteries, too.

It’d be more fitting to mandate every product to include its ecological price. Disposable vapes, for example, would disappear instantly.
Also a good idea. I’m trying to make it too expensive to manufacture the vapes, you’re making them too expensive to purchase.
Seems to me that €2,50 is a fair price for a throwaway watch.
Even then it feels like disposable cup kinda bad
