According to European Commission regulation the eco-design requirements for light sources and separate control gears should be implemented and regulated properly, without entailing excessive costs for energy-related products which account for significant number of sales and trade in countries are making a huge impact to environment. Pursuant to European legislation policies, there are huge necessity for EU regulatory actions due to managing long lasting problems of reducing e-waste, empower consumers to make reasonable and sustainable choices and allow EU citizens to take initiative in managing sustainable and rightfully functioning internal markets. Therefore, this article analyzes the peculiarities of the legal regulation of European Union and its implementation solutions in the Republic of Lithuania seeking the goal to achieve ewaste reduction, understanding of existing e-waste problem of society and government activeness on decisions making in the field of e-waste management in the process. The main purpose of this paper is to investigate whether Lithuanian legal legislation corresponds and seeks the purpose indicated in EU regulation and resolutions of implementation of toxic-free environment and single lightning efficiency. The Qualitative document and comparative data analysis are used to identify the problems and propose the probable solution considering improvement of implementation of legal regulation for lighting products in the Republic of Lithuania to seek the target of toxic-free environment and sustainable climate neutral and circular economy.

Purpose – Lithuanian legislations regulating road traffic procedures indicates that main purpose of legal regulations is to improve traffic safety requirements on roads in order to protect the life, health and property of road users and other persons, to improve transport and pedestrian traffic conditions 1. Thus, the statistical data analysis indicates otherwise as well as evaluations of protocols and legal acts for the offences of road violation. Using the retrospective assessment, when assessing the past situation and its change, examining the reports of the work of police institutions in carrying out traffic supervision from 2008 to 2020, an increasing trend of traffic violations in Lithuania is observed. The number of road traffic offenses detected in 2008 is almost forty-two thousand, while in all twelve months of 2020 more than four million road traffic offenses are recorded, which presupposes that the Lithuanian law enforcement and law enforcement system and road prevention traffic offenses do not work properly and do not seek the goal indicated in the legislations of Lithuania 2. Therefore, the finding of the fact, that the mitigating circumstances provided for in the legislation 3 and the possibility to not penalize the road violation offense, by applying mitigating circumstances, or to issue only a warning or another alternative measure of responsibility, so that a person in fault could learn from his mistakes, without imposing a fine, rarely are applied by the law enforcement officer in charge. Thus, these indications arise reasonable doubt of the purpose of the legislation of the requirements of traffic rules in Lithuania and the effectiveness of our legislation, as well as the ways to seek the goal indicated in it.

Electrical and electronic equipment waste is the one of the fastest growing hazardous waste types in this century. The aim of the thesis is to analyze the efficiency of the implementation of legal regulation of prevention of e-waste in Lithuania. To seek the goal the method of legal document analysis and comparative analysis of legal doctrine is used. The historical comparative method is used for evaluations of changes in the legislation as well as the parallel analysis of legal acts. The main goal is to find a way to improve e-waste legal regulation in Lithuania in the field of prevention, by eliminating dysfunctions in the legal regulation of e-waste prevention management. Electrical and electronic equipment products have become accessible to every consumer; therefore, it can be assumed, that the production and usage of electronic products will continue to grow, and the legal regulation of such waste, in the area of prevention, will remain relevant. Thus, this research has the value not only to humanity but to the environment as well, as it will identify the challenges of the practical implementation of the legal regulation of prevention of e-waste in a globalized environment.

The improvement of regulation of legal responsibility of the violations of e-waste management in contemporary society is the one way to try to deal with the problem. In the age of technological progress, computing, the contemporary society is changing, therefore it became more cautious, the intellectual activity is evolving, so the legal legislation and legal rules have to be created and implicated taking into account the inevitable change of the thinking and operating of the society. The purpose of this article is to reveal the legal regulation of responsibility for the violation of e-waste management in Lithuania and by analyzing and comparing legal regulations and court practices to provide the solution for improvement of effectiveness and efficiency in this area.

Purpose – the field of electrical and electronic equipment waste management has become very relevant over the last decade. The amount of these type of waste is still increasing not only in Lithuania, but in other countries (developed and developing) as well. The improvement of regulation of legal responsibility of the violations of e-waste management in contemporary society is the one way to try to deal with the problem. In the age of technological progress, computing, the contemporary society is changing, therefore it became more cautious, the intellectual activity is evolving, so the legal legislation and legal rules have to be created and implicated taking into account the inevitable change of the thinking and operating of the society. The purpose of this article is to reveal the legal regulation of responsibility for the violation of e-waste management in Lithuania and by analyzing and comparing legal regulations and court practices to provide the solution for improvement of effectiveness and efficiency in this area. Design/methodology/approach – the paper is based on qualitative document analysis and comparative analysis method by comparing different legislation and its implications as well as court decisions. Scientific literature analysis, legal literature content analysis techniques are used to systematically evaluate legal documents. Qualitative data comparative and summarization methods, will be used during the research to better understand the challenges of the issue. Finding – the effectiveness of legal responsibility mechanism depends on improvement of legal legislation taking into account the change and evolvement of contemporary society in this age of technology, information and consumption. Research limitations/implications – to reveal the dysfunctions of legal responsibility and legal legislation in the field of e-waste management, it is necessary to investigate and compare the nature of the offences and how often they are made, what are the measures obtain them and to obviate them in the future, thus The Environmental Protection Agency, The Ministry of Environment of the Republic of Lithuania and The Environmental Protection Department under the Ministry of Environment as well as the internet and Official Statistic Portal does not provide this information, so available are only those cases, which are appealed in the court. Practical implications – the comparative analysis provides a background on further discussions concerning legal responsibility for violation of e-waste management legislation. Originality/Value – not many scientific research was made in the field of analysis of electrical and electronic equipment management. There is still a lack of academic insights into the issues of effectiveness of responsibility mechanism for the offences of WEEE. The paper provides insights into the liability and responsibility of such waste use, disposal, production, distribution and selling and points out the solutions for legal regulation improvement in this area will be provided.

In order to analyze the conjunction of women and technology in the field of waste management, it is firstly necessary to analyze the whole picture of women activities in Lithuania. What is the difference of women and men educational attainment in Lithuania, which field of science women prefers to take a part in, what job positions women usually occupy, what is the role women in the government and municipalities, what are the numbers of women using of computer, internet, e-commerce and how the use of technology effects waste management, these are the main questions to answer in this research.
