Topic
E-waste is becoming a significant problem to be addressed. The rapid transit of technology and its falling prices mean that consumers are easily able to buy newer releases of electronic equipment such as mobile phones, relegating the previous release to waste. This is compounded by the very strong marketing that accompanies each such release. E-waste is quite different from general waste such as organic waste in that we cannot just bury it in the ground and hope that it goes away.

You may find this recent news article in the Australian context informative as to the nature of the problem.
