Electronic 2.0
Electronic waste is the toxic legacy of our digital age. More than 48 million tonnes of e-waste are produced every year. 80% of this waste ends up in landfills, representing the majority of all toxic waste in landfills across the globe. From electronic waste, CO2 emissions to harsh working conditions and devastating sourcing practices, the eletronics industry is a major contributor to some of the world’s most serious environmental and human rights issues. Electronics related waste can even be found orbiting the planet among other 8.000 metric tones of space waste.
