Producers of E-Waste
• The major producers of e- waste are the developed countries such as US, UK, Russia, Germany, etc.

Impact of e-waste• The volume of e-waste increases with 3-5%
per year, which is almost three times faster than the regular municipal waste.
• 20-50 million tons of e-wastes are yearly generated world wide.
• Causes pollution in the environment.• Humans get affected when in contact with
e- waste.• Degrades the soil, where it is dumped.• Hazardous to human lives.

Causes
• Collected by recyclers abroad.• Sold to waste traders.• Passed through customs as second hand, mixed
metal scrap for charity / donations etc.• Ends up at recycling units (informal sector).• Lack of data and information on e-waste
generation and imports and exports.• Lack of policies and legislative framework to• address e-waste issues.
