Lead free solder - exposed in a UK national newspaper

As I've said before... It isn't a matter of whether electronic equipment
has
lead in it, but what happens to that equipment when it's disposed of. It's
the latter that should be considered.
And lead isn't the only toxic substance used in electronic equipment and the
process used to manufacture it.
Is a lead-free item that fails and ends up in the landfill after 2 years
better than a lead-containing device that lasts a decade?
