80% Indians Understands e-Waste, Cerebra Green’s E-Waste Survey Unleashed

68% of those surveyed stated that they do not view local waste collectors as an option to dispose e-waste, a belief that is reflected by the waste collectors themselves as 72% of participants stated that local waste collectors do not pick up e-waste in their area. This has forced 90% of citizens to dispose e-waste by means of online exchanges or local electronics vendors. Furthermore, 50% stated that they own 2 or more devices that they no longer use, which they continue to hoard for up to 5 years, thereby heightening the possibility of incorrect disposal.
