2023-11-16 Growing problem of e-waste

1) Wireless devices have short lives but, unfortunately, the toxic materials they contain don’t. Telecoms make sure that phones become obsolete, requiring total replacement regularly, for example. This terrible cycle is destroying the environment and harming those involved with constant recycling.

Electronic Waste (e-waste)

“Every year millions of electrical and electronic devices are discarded as products break or become obsolete and are thrown away. These discarded devices are considered e-waste and can become a threat to the environment and to human health if they are not treated, disposed of, and recycled appropriately. Common items in e-waste streams include computers, mobile phones, and large household appliances, as well as medical equipment…

Electronic waste (e-waste) is the fastest growing solid waste stream in the world, increasing 3 times faster than the world’s population.

Experts raise public health fears about microwave syndrome from 5G masts

“The Government would have us believe that “there may be a small increase in overall exposure to radio waves when 5G is added to an existing network or in a new area” but that “there should be no consequences for public health”. Is this actually the case? On what evidence has this statement been made?”
