I think electronic waste problem is the main problem faced by this generation and comming generation people.Tonnes and tonnes of electronic waste generated both by developed and developing countries .This waste is more dangereous than plastic waste.The electronic waste like PCB is not recycled like plastic.If heated it generates many toxic gases.If we donnot take any necessary action urgently,it will create lot of problems in the short future.E-waste is fastest growing component,becuse people are upgrading their televisions,mobiles and computer more frequently than any other components.

Hi sreejithsrenivas! I completely agree with you that electronic waste will soon be a bigger problem to face in the near future. So much advancement of technology has been taking place and I never heard of people who have discovered the most safest way to clean the waste. All I heard about is that industrialized countries are always on the look-out for third world countries as their dumping site of their electronic waste. I just hope people will be more aware of this fact. Take care and have a nice day.
