Managing Electronic Waste - A Growing Concern
Electronic waste, or e-waste, is a growing concern worldwide. E-waste is the world's fastest-growing waste stream. In 2019, 53.6 million metric tons (Mt) were generated, and this figure is expected to reach 75 Mt by 2030.
Asia is the largest creator of e-waste, with China being the single biggest contributor.
E-waste contains hazardous materials that can be harmful to the environment and human health if not properly managed. Effective e-waste management involves reducing the amount of e-waste generated, reusing and recycling e-waste, and proper disposal of hazardous materials.
At Climax, we are committed to providing comprehensive solutions for managing electronic waste and contributing to a safer and healthier environment.
Impact of E-Waste on Health and Environment
Exposure to e-waste toxins can cause respiratory problems, birth defects, developmental issues, and an increased risk of cancer. Workers in informal e-waste recycling sectors and those near disposal sites are most vulnerable.
Proper disposal of electronic devices prevents toxic chemicals from contaminating the ecosystem, while reusing them conserves valuable resources. Additionally, promoting responsible e-waste recycling and reusing creates new job opportunities and contributes to economic growth.
Electronic waste, or e-waste, has severe environmental consequences when not disposed of properly. When these devices end up in landfills, they release toxic chemicals into the soil and groundwater, contaminating local water sources and harming wildlife. Moreover, the production of new electronic devices requires a lot of energy and resources, including rare metals and minerals. By recycling e-waste, we can reduce the need for new production and conserve valuable resources.
E-Waste Recycling & Reusing
Recycling and reusing e-waste is essential for environmental sustainability. By properly disposing of electronic devices and reusing them, we minimize the negative impact on our planet.
Only 17.4% of e-waste generated in 2019 was officially recycled, highlighting the need for improved recycling practices. Climax is dedicated to promoting responsible e-waste management.
With Climax, you can trust that your electronic waste will be handled efficiently and ethically. Together, let's create a greener, more sustainable future.
