E-waste Fact Sheet
E-waste is a fast growing component of municipal solid waste that contains valuable materials and hazardous toxins. While landfilling is common, recycling and reuse has economic and environmental benefits. It can create 15-200 times more jobs than landfilling per ton of electronics by salvaging materials. Upgrading existing electronics saves 5-20 times more energy than new purchases. However, improper disposal of 315 million obsolete computers in 2004 would release over 1 billion pounds of toxins like lead, cadmium, and mercury into the environment. Recycling reduces greenhouse gas emissions and conserves resources compared to manufacturing new electronics.
You Can Make A Difference
The document provides tips and statistics about small actions individuals can take to help the environment and reduce waste. Some key points include:
- Lowering thermostats by 1 degree in Canadian homes during winter could save 23 million barrels of oil.
- Recycling just one cell phone by each user in Canada would provide enough precious metals to make 63 solid gold Tutankhamen masks.
- If every Canadian household turned off lights for 1 hour on Earth Hour, it could prevent over 1,661 tons of carbon dioxide emissions.
- Replacing one roll of non-recycled toilet paper with recycled paper annually in Canadian homes would save 42,400 trees.
Go Green
Going green with technology involves properly recycling and reusing electronic components to prevent pollution and conserve resources. It also means companies making more energy efficient machines and using technology to save paper and go paperless. While recycling has benefits like preventing toxins from landfills and reclaiming valuable materials, it also has challenges like companies dumping used electronics in developing countries and potential for recycled materials to leak toxins. Many large companies are taking steps to be more environmentally friendly through initiatives like reducing paper usage, lowering emissions, and sourcing renewable energy. Recycling various materials saves significant amounts of energy compared to producing them from raw materials.

Harmful Effect Of Computers On Environment - EWASTE
This Presentation gives an Overview of Harmful Effects Of Computers On Our Environment and surroundings. It also deals with the methods of curbing this Ewaste.
Green technology
This document discusses the environmental impacts of technology. It notes that billions of computers, TVs, mobile phones, and other devices are sold each year, which requires mining of raw materials and results in electronic waste when devices become obsolete. Technology contributes to carbon emissions through its manufacturing, use, and disposal. However, it can also help reduce energy use and emissions through applications like smart meters and more efficient product design. The document asks students to consider technology's negative and positive environmental effects, and provides data on how much energy common devices consume and the resulting costs to run them for a year. It then assigns students a task to research energy use and costs of different PC specifications or create an app to calculate technology's environmental costs.
Where Does All the Hardware Go?
This document discusses retired IT assets and the IT asset disposition (ITAD) process. It begins with an overview of the global e-waste problem and statistics on e-waste generation. It then covers the full ITAD process from secure collection and transport of retired assets to sorting, repair/refurbishment, resale if possible, and responsible recycling. It emphasizes the importance of choosing a trusted ITAD partner and outlines best practices around data security, record keeping, and ensuring materials are handled responsibly through certified recycling facilities. The goal is to maximize the reuse of retired assets through resale while properly recycling the rest to create a circular economy and avoid harmful e-waste dumping.
Final.Laptop Vs. Desktop
The document compares the environmental impacts of laptop and desktop computers. It discusses the production costs and materials used in laptop batteries, which contain heavy metals that can cause water pollution if improperly disposed. Desktops contain hazardous materials like lead in CRT monitors and brominated flame retardants in plastics. While laptops have a shorter lifespan than desktops, their energy consumption and amount of toxic e-waste is smaller due to not having CRT monitors. Neither laptops nor desktops are optimal and an alternative like the low-power, low-cost Cherrypal PC may be more environmentally friendly.
Waste (Not)
This document discusses various ways to reduce waste and promote more sustainable consumption, including reducing unnecessary purchases and packaging, reusing items when possible, recycling appropriately, and being aware of how individual waste habits impact the environment. It notes that the average amount of waste per person per day in the US is 4.3 pounds and provides data on current recycling rates and their environmental benefits. The document encourages setting reasonable waste reduction goals and offers resources for calculating a household's carbon footprint from waste.
Global Recycling
The document discusses the history and importance of recycling. It notes that in 2001, the U.S. created 409 million tons of waste and by 2008 Americans generated about 250 million tons of trash annually, recycling 83 million tons. Recycling saves energy and natural resources compared to producing goods from raw materials. Common recycled materials include glass, paper, metals and plastics. The recycling movement grew out of the Great Depression and WWII to prevent waste. While recycling has environmental benefits, it does have some costs and does not eliminate all pollution.

E-Waste Essay
E-waste is a growing problem around the world as more electronics are discarded. There are four main ways to deal with e-waste: landfilling,
incinerating, reusing, and recycling. However, landfilling and incinerating e-waste are not ideal due to toxic materials in electronics that can harm
the environment and human health when disposed of improperly. Better solutions are needed to reduce e-waste, such as increasing reuse and recycling.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
