E-waste, this is something a seemingly increasing problem faced by most of us today. Invariably it directly strikes a country or a society and its economical values. But before getting deep down inside, lets us understand what e-waste, its source, its growth rate, its global impacts etc.

The phenomenon of e-waste can be defined as the term that encloses all types of electrical and electronic gadgets/equipment that has been or could be scraped or put into no more use state. It covers up right from TV’s, computers, mobile phones, white goods, house hold things and business uses like electrical components.

On top of all the other gadgets, computers accounts for major e-waste scraps world-wide. The intense reason behind it is due to ‘digital revolution’ or in the other words ‘technological dive’. The rapid increase and innovation in the ITC (information and communication technology) has paved for rapid replace from analog to digital technology in fast pace. This eventually lead to low priced goods that gradually increased the demand for gadgets globally, invariably ending up in E-waste.

Although it’s a difficult task to statistically abridge the actual amount of e-waste being disposed. Few are being ethically re-cycled; few are left out as scraps and lot more are being used along with the newest products illegally. This is a long run process and often complicated to track its chain of events yet, we are on our way to resolve this e-waste problem by engaging ourselves with the various stakeholders and relevant scientific insight.
