Government is conscious about wrong method of handling electronic waste, and its adverse effects on human health and nature. They have tried internationally to minimize this squander. There are many rules and legislation applied for the collection of products. The EU requires manufacturer for the safe disposal. Recently they have applied new directive named as “Green Design”. It sets the limit for use of mercury, lead and other toxic substance. Another directive setup the infrastructure for collection, it is called as the take-back strategy.
In the United States, legislative property of electronic waste recycling is less important. They are not using take-back or green design programs for manufacturers. Matthew Hale uses another approach and said, “We’re definitely trying to channel market forces, and look for cooperative approaches and consensus standards,”
Jim Puckett is head of Basel Action Network and said “We in the developed world get the benefit from these devices,” “But when our equipment becomes unusable, we externalize the real environmental costs and liabilities to the developing world.”
There are so many producers and retailer available in an Asia. China is leading in the explosive growth . They are using plastic, paper, aluminum in the circuit board.
Owner of Corona Visions, a recycling company in San Antonio “They said this stuff was all going to get recycled and put back into use,” “It seemed environmentally responsible. And it was profitable, because I was getting paid to have it taken off my hands.”
From above information, we can understand the major problem and try to take participate in the recycling process.
