Lead free roofs?  In UK (and other countries?) there is a huge amount of 
lead used for flashing on roofs.  I would say that there is very much 
more lead in most people's roofs than in their entire collection of 
electronics, fishing, etc. equipment.

But perhaps this is less a problem because (in theory at least) it 
should not end up in landfill - I would imagine that builders are meant 
to dispose of it properly when it is replaced .. whether they do or not 
is a different matter...
