Recycling stands as a cornerstone in environmental preservation, offering a lifeline to our planet. By diverting waste from landfills, recycling minimizes greenhouse gas emissions, preserves precious resources, and slashes energy consumption. This is particularly crucial in the realm of electronic waste (e-waste), which is one of the fastest-growing waste streams globally.
The rapid rise in global e-waste generation, highlighted by the UN's Global E-waste Monitor 2024, underscores the critical need for effective recycling practices. Recycling of e-waste also helps in avoiding release of toxic stuff into our environment; this also help to conserve raw materials which are often scarce in supply thus limiting mining. The material inputs of the management of fifty two percent of the 62 million tonnes of electronic waste in the use and in the disposal of these wastes in the year 2022 will lessen the emission of the greenhouse gasses and energy. Another neglected area is the need to pay adequate attention to the recycling of E-waste and this can only be done through improvement of recycling programs.
