E-Waste Solutions

Content: by 2016, the world started generating about 44.7 million tons of e-waste each year. It’s been estimated that this is the equivalent of sending 125,000 jumbo jets to the trash heap each year. The Cycle Of Old Electronics
The problem, of course, is one we all recognize: technology. As technology becomes more advanced, the life span of our devices just keeps getting shorter. Far too many products simply get thrown out once a newer and more sophisticated version comes out, or once their batteries die, to be replaced with new devices. Manufacturers, it’s known, intentionally build devices to eventually become obsolete. The fast-growing number of unwanted devices means the amount of e-waste being sent to landfills is skyrocketing — and with it comes an environmental ticking time bomb in the form of toxic chemicals inside those devices that can contaminate our soil, water, and air.

The good news is that there are efficient and successful ways to solve the growing environmental problems that e-waste poses. And one of the most proven solutions is through recycling.
