SCRAP. AWARENESS

Cities are getting densely populated and polluted in the world. This is a reason to be worried about; however, what is more worrying is that a lot of Bangladesh’s households and businesses that are determined to fight pollution and environmental degradation but do a very small exercise of recycling. Most of us are aware that paper and plastic can be recycled and the benefits of recycling are very much known to a whole. Our children are taught to conserve resources. Besides, the country’s government runs campaigns to encourage citizens to manage the wastages properly. Metal recycling awareness, unlike plastic and paper, is low in Bangladesh. But, recycling of metals is as important to improve the environment as recycling paper, plastic and other commonly recycled materials. The most harmful effect of electronic waste is that it affects nearly every system in the human body because they contain a plethora of toxic components including Mercury, Lead, Cadmium; Poly brominated Flame Retardants, Barium and Lithium. Even the plastic casings of electronics products contain Polyvinyl Chloride. Electronics wastages like computers, mobile devices, televisions, sound systems, chargers and even household appliances are all recyclable, yet they can also be the most dangerous materials dumped inside a landfill, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. When improperly disposed of, the heavy metals, plastics and glass in e-waste can pollute the air or seep into waterways. Recycling e-waste can significantly decrease the demand for mining heavy metals and reduce the greenhouse gas emissions from manufacturing virgin materials.
