What is e-waste?
Electronic waste or ‘e-waste’ is electrical or electronic devices that are broken or have become obsolete. According to the WHO, E-waste is one of the fastest-growing streams of solid waste in the world and poses a threat to human health if not recycled correctly.
The global e-waste threat
The World Health Organisation (WHO) reports that electronic waste, or e-waste, is quickly becoming a global issue affecting human health and the environment.
E-waste, including broken and obsolete electronics, including computers, has become the fastest-growing solid waste stream in the world, growing at a rate three times faster than population growth (International Labour Organisation).
The majority of e-waste is not recycled; however, among the devices that are recycled, poor processes are rife, including the use of child labour, hazardous storage, and improper recycling techniques that put people and the environment at risk (International Labour Organisation).
Why recycle with Kilmarnock?
Electronic devices contain various materials that can be removed and reused or recycled, including valuable and rare materials like gold. Our E-waste recycling operation is one of the many things we do at Kilmarnock to create employment opportunities for people with intellectual disabilities. Our team is proud to be a part of a recycling solution that reduces the amount of recyclable materials that end up in our landfills.
