| NOTAS: | "The consumption of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (EEE) is strongly linked to widespread global economic development. EEE has become indispensable in modern societies and is enhancing living standards, but its production and usage can be very resource-demanding. After its use, EEE is disposed of, generating a waste stream (e-waste) that contains hazardous and valuable materials. This monitor provides the most comprehensive update of global e-waste statistics." |
