Manufacturers should be explicit about life span, giving consumers some power. It happens in France so why not here? Please consider signing https://www.change.org/p/demand-all-companies-selling-in-the-uk-to-report-the-full-life-cycle-of-their-products-zerowaste-sustainability-reduce-reuse-recycle?

Hello Camille, and welcome to the Restarters community!
It’s an ambitious petition, thanks for sharing it. What happens in France is however different: people can access the repairability index for many products when they buy them, indicating with a score between 0 and 10 how repairable a product they’re about to buy is - but there’s no information in that score about how long the manufacturer think the product will last.

Ah thanks for the clarification, it’s my error and I think the link is more accurate (I hope!). I was just disappointed there were so few signatures so far, it was made by a friend who I’m not sure has experience with activism, and I think this forum would be a good place to get some initial signatures.
