E-waste, also known as electronic waste, refers to discarded electronic devices and equipment that are no longer in use or are obsolete. This includes items such as computers, laptops, mobile phones, televisions, printers, and other electronic devices.

E-waste poses a significant environmental and health hazard due to the toxic chemicals and heavy metals contained in these devices. When improperly disposed of, e-waste can contaminate soil and water, releasing dangerous chemicals into the environment and affecting human health.

To address the problem of e-waste, it’s essential to adopt sustainable practices for the disposal and recycling of electronic devices. This includes proper collection and handling of e-waste, separating hazardous materials, and ensuring that the remaining materials are recycled and reused in an environmentally friendly manner.

Many countries have regulations and laws in place to manage e-waste and encourage proper disposal and recycling practices. Consumers can also help by properly disposing of their electronic devices, donating or selling them for reuse, and supporting companies that prioritize sustainable practices for managing e-waste.
