In an increasingly digitalized world, we continue to develop and embrace new technologies, resulting in product obsolescence, propelling e-waste volumes to the fastest-growing worldwide waste stream. Poor waste management solutions result in inappropriate e-waste disposal, which can wind up in landfills where chemicals leak into soil and water, adding to the contamination that is dangerous to the environment and health. It also results in the loss of unrecovered material resources and the production of carbon dioxide, which contributes to global warming and climate change.
