章节摘录

　　In the evenings，they go to the mall，once a week or more．Sometimes，theyeven leave the dinner dishes in the sink SO they will have enough time to finish allthe errands．The father never comes he hates shopping，especially with his wife．Instead，he stays at home to read the paper and put around his study．To do thingsthat the other dads must be doing in the evenings．To summon the sand to comerushing in and plug up his ears with its roaring silence．　　Meanwhile，the mother arms herself with returns from the last trip．Her twoyoung daughters forget games of flashlight tag or favorite TV shows and strap ontennis shoes and seatbelts：and they’re off．On summer nights，when it’S light un-til after the fireflies arrive，the air is heavy and moist．The daughters unroll theirwindows and stick the whole of their heads out into the slate blue sky，feeling fullforce the sweaty，honey suckle air．In the cold mall，their rubber soles squeak onshin Y linoleum squares．The younger daughter tries not to step on any cracks．Theolder daughter keeps a straight-ahead gaze；her sullen eyes count down each errandas it’S done．　　It is not until the third or，on a good night，the fourth errand that the troublebegins．The girls have wandered over to examine rainbow beach towels，perhaps，or some kind of pink ruffled bedspread．The mother’S voice finds them from a fewaisles away．Dinner squirms in the daughters’stomachs．Now comes that what-if-I-threw-up-right——this·second?or where-is-a-rabbit-hole-for－me-to-fall－into?feeling thatthey get around this time of evening，at the mall．The older one shakes her pony-tails at the younger one．Her blue eyes hiss the careful-don’t-cry warning，but theyounger one’S cheeks only get redder．Toe by toe，the daughters edge towardshousewares where they finger lace placemats or trace patterns in the store carpetwith sneakered soles．　　The mother’S voice still finds them，shaking with rage．Finally，heels slappingin her sandals，she strides towards them and then keeps going．They follow。catch-ing her word-trail，“Stupid people．Stupid。stupid．stupid．I HATE stupid peo-pie．”It’S the little skips between steps the younger one takes to keep up with hermother’S long，angry legs．It’S the car door slamming and the seat belt buckleyanked into place．It’S those things that tell the daughters how the next few hourswill go．　　In the car，the older one sighs and grinds her back teeth．The younger onefeels her face get hotter and her eyes start to swell．She stares at an ice cream stainon the back of the front seat and sees a pony，a flower，and a fairy in that splashof chocolate mint chip．The mother begins on both at once．“And when we gethome，if your shoes are still in the TV room，I’m throwing them out．Same forbooks．No more shit house．No more lazy，ungrateful kids．”And SO on and SO onth rough the black velvet sky and across the Hershey bar roads．On into the housewith a slap or two．“You’11 be happy when I’m in my grave，”wails at them asthey put on their nightgowns and brush their teeth．The older one sets a stone jawand the younger one tries not to sob as she opens wide，engulfing her small handand scrubbing each and every molar．　　The father is not spared．The volcanic mother saves some up just for him．“Fucking lousy husband．Do-nothing father．”And on like that for an hour or somore．Then in the darkest part of the night，it’S bare feet and cool hands on asmall sweaty forehead．Kisses and caresses and“Sorry Morn got a little mad．”Promises for that pink ruffled bedspread or maybe a new stuffed animal．Long fin-gers rake through the younger one’S curls．“Tomorrow evening，we’11 get yousome kind of treat．Right after dinner。we’ll go to the mall．”　　Europe is following the Dutch lead and taking the green movement to the manufacturers of white goods and electronics．A spate of legislation emerging from Brussels aims ultimately to hold manufacturers responsible for the fate of their products along after they’ve left store shelves or car showrooms．They’re beingtold they must ensure that as much as 85 percent of their products is recycled or re。used，and the remainder disposed of in environmentally sound ways．　　Something surely needs to be done．In recent decades consumers have grownused to an ever．speedier turnover of hardware．A computer built in the 1960s lasted10 years on average；now they are scrapped in just four．In the past more than 90percent of this detritus had been buried in landfills．Europe’S junk heap of elec-tronic goods now weighs 6 million tons and will double in 12 years．All this waste istaking an obvious toll on the planet．　　Even at this early stage in Europe’S recycling experiment，though，the newlaws have already caused unintended problems．Some European countries have been caught wholly unprepared．Because of the new regulations，waste sites andincinerators throughout Europe are being inundated with hardware．Recycling．fa-cilities now coming online face a backlog of six months．Another problem：replacing bad but essential materials．The EU will soon ban the use of the lead，a haz-ardous substance that’S been used for decades to solder circuit boards．Electronics companies are struggling to find alternatives．“This could be a much bigger chal-lenge for US than the waste．disposal regulation．”says Michelle O’Neill，a Hewlett-Packard lobbyist in Brussels．　　Business leaders also warn of excessive costs．“Society and the politicians have another objective here：to move costs onto industry，”says Viktor Sundberg，Euro-pean affairs director of Swedish manufacturer Electrolux．Inevitably some of those costs will trickle down to the consumer．And there’S the sticky problem of assigning responsibility．Is one manufacturer liable for recycling the products of aformer rival that has gone out of business?Should carmakers pay for dismembering vehicles built years before the directive took effect?Europe hasnt worked outthese iSSUes．
