Why Is E-Waste a Critical Issue?

E-waste refers to electrical and electronic equipment that has worn out, broken, or simply become unnecessary. This category includes:

mobile phones, laptops, tablets,

small household appliances,

tools, chargers, cables,

monitors, TVs, and other display devices.

These items contain both hazardous substances and valuable raw materials, requiring special disposal methods. The European Union鈥檚 goal is to recycle 65% of e-waste by 2035, while current rates stand at only around 30%鈥攎eaning there is still much work to be done, and every responsibly handled device counts.

What Can You Do?

Use your devices for as long as possible鈥攔epair them instead of discarding them.

When replacing a device, ensure your old one is taken to an official collection point.

Avoid unnecessary purchases鈥攁sk yourself whether you truly need a new device.

Share your best practices on the topic with colleagues and fellow students.
