Have you ever wondered what happens to your old phone or broken laptop after you throw it away? Most of us don’t think about it, but these devices contain harmful chemicals that can damage the environment if not disposed of properly. This growing problem is known as e-waste. In India, it’s becoming a serious issue as more and more people use electronics every day.
Plastic waste has become a pervasive environmental challenge, with global production reaching over 320 million tonnes annually as of 2018. Alarmingly, only about 9% of this plastic is recycled, while the rest accumulates in landfills or pollutes our oceans. To combat this crisis, individuals and communities can adopt creative strategies to repurpose plastic waste, transforming it into innovative masterpieces. Central to this approach is the practice of the 3Rs: Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle.
