The E-waste is another problem for newly
formed Indian Govt. just like inflation, corruption and over population. There
millions of people in the country who can afford the valuable Smartphone and
other devices but the e-waste just not comes from individuals but also from the
companies who’s going large and expanding their services. In order to do that
they need big chuck of hardware, which will replaces the existing one and then
comes the problem, there are still lack of e-waste recycling and proper
disposal in the India. Individual just keep the electronics until they actually
turn into garbage and then they throw it or either sell it to several plastic
and garbage collectors, they again sell it to big one and all the matter just
go to one landfill to another. According to a firm which rates other Hardware
producers on the basis of their management of the scrap, had rate very poor the
globally popular Apple, Phillips, Samsung and other. So why they are taking
this lightly, because India is still so far from the WEEE legislation and don’t
follow the proper methods to dispose or recycling.
A prestigious
websites “Only seven companies
(Canon, Intex, Lenovo, Nokia, Onida, Panasonic and Sansui)
received green rating, signifying they had taken some good initiatives. The
study examines if the two most important stakeholders – producers and the
regulatory agencies – State Pollution Control Boards/Committees (SPCBs/Cs),
have been effective in fulfilling their roles defined under the e-waste
(Management and Handling) Rules, 2011.”
The Environmentalbusiness is growing and expanding the roots into the world, many companies have
raised billions of dollars to rebuild the facilities for batter recycling and
cleaning the environment. These companies look for precious metals, which they
extract from the devices and sell them to make profit and they actually make
huge profit.
