We all love technology because it makes our lives easy, but the more devices we buy, the more e-waste we will eventually produce. There is nothing wrong with buying and using electronics, but we must start reducing the negative impact.
- Raw materials. - The manufacturing of tech equipment takes a surprising amount of natural resources and energy, and the same overuse of those supplies had produced raw materials scarcity. The best example: A shortage in water will mean the end of the world because it would be impossible to survive without water.
- Product development. - It would be almost impossible to stop manufacturing tech because they are now part of our routines, but at least we can minimize its negative impact. As a business owner, you can start by developing a sustainable supply chain and promoting green practices among your workers.
- Manufacturing. - Those long manufacturing processes require massive amounts of energy and water. If companies do not start employing green practices, their manufacturing processes will damage both workers and environmental wellness.
- Usage. - Due to the planned obsolescence, people consider that their current equipment will become outdated whenever a new device releases into the market. If we keep using our electronics for longer, we will directly decrease e-waste rates, pollution, and the overuse of resources.
- End of life. - Disposing of our old gear represents a real challenge since electronics contain toxic and hazardous materials.
