SDG 3 SDG 6 SDG 12 SDG 13

With the high rate in technological changes, there is a high rate of disposing old electronic gadgets that are deemed irrelevant or defective. E waste is one of the world's rising environmental and health problems that need sustainable solution.

As technological inventors continue to produce gadgets that will assist humans, we should also consider a sustainable solution to E waste. It is not only harmful to the environment but also human health. Moreover, the mass production of electronics has brought out social issues.
