RESCO (REUSABLE SUSTAINABLE COMMODITY)

Abstract

What do we do with our e-waste? The answers would possibly be „what is e-waste‟, „office IT vendor‟ and „collection boxes‟ to „we just dump it in the dustbin‟ or „put it in our cupboards for a long long time.‟ It is like that disposing of e-waste effectively (or at all) is not a priority because, we think, it doesn‟t really get in our way.E-waste recycling is a concept barely existent in India. As a result, the electronic waste generated is often dumped in rivers or in dump yards without proper treatment. This is hazardous for both the environment and personal health. Electronic waste (e-waste) is one of fast-growing trash streams in the country. Knowledge Growth and The Telecommunications Technology sector has improved electronic use equipment exponentially. Soon expiration and subsequent upgrades of electronic products, are compelling consumers discard old products, which then accumulate large e-waste in a solid stream of waste. E-waste is growing in India at a rate of 10%. Major recycling of e-waste is carried out in the non-formal sector using primitive and hazardous methods. . Adequate legal action and inexpensive, friendly to nature, A technical solution will be needed to fix the issue.With increasing production of electronic devices, the carbon emission is also increasing drastically. Even processes like recycling have a high usage of resources like water and electricity which are also (though in lesser quantities) degrading the environment. The UN has set up Sustainable Development Goals which set up certain goals that we need to match up in future.Seeing that a large amount of carbon emissions come from development of electronics, we decided to build a project that can help people to REUSE old electronic products.
