Electronics have revolutionized our lifestyle. Telephones, radios, TVs, computers and cell phones are items we use daily. However, these items make up the bulk of electronics that threaten the environment because of their e-waste.
As new products hit the market, relevant information and resources are necessary to ensure outdated items are properly discarded. The next time you upgrade your cell phone, or get the latest video game system, think twice about what happens to the old gadget.
Protect Public Health and the Environment,
Most electronics contain hazardous or toxic materials which can cause an environmental problem if discarded in the trash. Safely recycling and reusing electronics helps keep substances like lead and mercury from harming people or the environment.
Examples:
- Computer monitors and televisions are hazardous because they contain significant amounts of lead (an average of four pounds of lead each).
- Printed circuit boards contain hazardous metals such as lead, chromium, cadmium and mercury, with significant variation depending on the board.
- Batteries in electronic and electrical products may contain lead, mercury and cadmium.
- Mercury-containing components like switches and relays are found in some electronic and electrical products, including the popular flat screen monitors.
- PCBs may be found in televisions and computers made before the early 1980s
Did You Know????
Consumer electronics may be responsible for 40% of the lead found in landfills. Lead can cause damage to the central and peripheral nervous systems, blood systems, and kidneys
