Will Garmin ever go green?

There's no general topic in the forum, so let me post it here as 1030 Plus is the latest & greatest model

I have many older Garmin devices, many still functioning properly ... except for the battery. I'd be happy to donate them to kids or anyone who can still use them - but I can't as their battery life is too short. Garmin refuses to replace batteries and I don't dare to do it myself. So I only can recycle them, i.e. throw away a perfectly functioning piece of hw ...

Will Garmin ever go green and do something about it??

In Europe, they are working on new legislation to force manufacturers to allow consumers to replace batteries in future consumer electronics. A very wise decision.
