Electronic waste, or e-waste, refers to discarded electronic and electrical components. It is a major problem in India, where the top cities generate over 60% of the country's e-waste. E-waste poses health and environmental risks when improperly disposed. It can cause DNA damage, cancer, and other health issues in humans while also polluting soil, water, and air. Though landfilling and incineration are used, recycling and reuse are preferable as they create jobs and allow functioning electronics to be used by others who cannot afford new products. While some developed nations export e-waste to developing countries, stronger legislation and prioritizing reuse and recycling can help address this growing environmental issue.
