Given the provisions of the RoHS2-Directive (2011/65/EU) which came into force in 2011 the list of restricted substances in electrical and electronic equipment shall be reviewed periodically, the fi rst time by July 2014. In 2012 the European Commission launched a study with the 2 main objectives: to develop a methodology to identify and assess substances for a potential restriction in EEE and to assess selected substances with a view to their future restriction.
Electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) contains an increasing variety of organic and inorganic chemical substances. Some of these substances have properties which are hazardous to human health and/or the environment. According to the RoHS Directive (2002/95/EC) the use of lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE)in EEE has been banned/restricted since 2006. In 2011 the recast of the Directive (RoHS2) came into force. It aims inter alia at specifying the conditions for adapting the RoHS Directive to the technical and scientific progress. This includes adaptation of the list of substances being restrictedin EEE (Annex II to the Directive). In particular it aims at a better prevention of risks to human health and the environment, with a particular focus on workers involved in the management of WEEE.

This article contends that climate law should be conceived as inherently transformative in a double sense. The law not only guides the necessary transformation of economy and society, but is itself undergoing transformation.
