Abstract

There has been a great debate over pollution and the environment around the world today. The concern of the environment with the concern of life is in front of everyone. The most problem in this and concern is that of Electronic Waste (E-Waste). Other big countries of the world are very vigilant in this matter, so neither has any initiative nor any awareness about it in India. Not only Computers but Mobile Phones, Televisions, Electronic Toys and other equipment being useless are becoming a big challenge for the e-waste environment. India is one of the top five countries in the world to spread E-Waste. Most cadmium, nickel, chromium, antimony, arsenic, beryllium and mercury are used in the materials used to make electronic items. These are all fatal to the environment and health. The 'Hazardous Waste Management, Maintenance and Crossing Traffic Rule 2008' created for this has remained confined to papers only.
