While 80% of large appliances like fridges and cookers are recycled only one in five of smaller items such as toasters and hairdryers is sent to a recycling centre. To reduce the amount of e-waste electronic items need to be more recyclable and easy ways to do so such as door-to-door collection must be made available. Reports forecast that if current waste management trends continue the UK will have a total of 1.2 million tonnes of e-waste by 2022 making it an urgent matter that we all should act on..
