Electronic waste (e-waste) is one of the fastest-growing waste streams in the world. However, according to the United Nations, only 20 percent of global e-waste is recycled each year.
Following its success in 2018, the second International E-Waste Day, developed by the WEEE Forum, is October 14. The WEEE Forum, an international association of e-waste collection schemes and its members, developed International E-Waste Day to promote the correct disposal of electrical and electronic equipment throughout the world.
