Have You Ever Thought Where Your Smart Devices Will Be In The Next 10 Years?

Here’s a future problem that we need to think of now. Electronic devices have become an integral part of our lives. We navigate our daily traffic with it, find recipes on it and even use it to capture memories around us. However, with the rapid advancement of technology comes a significant environmental challenge – the e-waste epidemic. E-waste refers to obsolete electronic devices such as smartphones, laptops, game consoles, and their components. Malaysians alone produce over 365,000 tonnes of e-waste annually, which amounts to more than 10 kilograms of e-waste per person each year. Malaysia, like many other countries, is grappling with the increasing volume of electronic waste generated each year and we should take immediate action to reduce e-waste and preserve the environment for future generations. Approximately 70% of overall toxic waste is contributed from e-waste, which contains hazardous substances like lead, mercury, arsenic, cadmium, and flame retardants. It can pose signifi...
