00:01computers, computers, computers, computers,
00:03computers, computers, computers,

00:10And you, what do you do with the batteries
00:12and devices that don't work?
00:14I vote to the trash comuns and
00:15because they really don't give us precise instructions.
00:18The trash normal?
00:19Well, the trash.
00:21Yes, no, no, I have a specific place
00:23to echar that.
00:25I have a number of batteries in my house
00:27and I have a number of cell phones
00:28and several, like four cell phones
00:30because I have no knowledge of that.
00:32Like they, many other Colombians
00:35do not know the program
00:36Recicla your phone or cell phone
00:38and communicate with the land
00:39from the Ministry of Environment
00:41and the operators of cell phones.
00:43It has been a voluntary campaign
00:45that has been in approximately
00:49130 points
00:49in 34 cities
00:51in the country.
00:53The way independent
00:54the elimination of the pilas
00:56that no serve in Colombia
00:57is under the principle of
01:00the extended principle
01:01of the producer.
01:02Basically, it means that the producer
01:04is responsible for
01:06to collect the products
01:07that he put in the market
01:08once he has finalized
01:10his life's life.

01:18toneladas
01:19of batteries
01:19and it is expected
01:21that for the year 2012
01:22this cifre
01:23aumente in great measure.
01:24If we do
01:24a proyección
01:25of the meta
01:26for the 2012
01:27that is to collect
01:28the 4%
01:29we are thinking
01:30that in the year 2012
01:33the importadores
01:34and fabricants
01:34have to collect
01:358 million
01:36of piles
01:36during this year.
01:38Between the damage
01:39that can cause
01:40the 200 million
01:41of batteries
01:42that can be consumed
01:43in Colombia
01:44can be.
01:45These piles have
01:46heavy metals
01:47heavy metals
01:49and they have
01:50mercury,
01:50copper,
01:51depending on the composition
01:52of the pile
01:53more than others.
01:54that once
