The issue of discarded computers and other electronics wastes is not a trivial matter any more. So people all around the world need to make changes as to how they handle these products to help ensure a clean environment for future generations.
Essay 008
• Discuss the issue and suggest a way or two to handle the problem.

With consumers and businesses constantly replacing electronic devices, the volume of abandoned computer and electronic waste is growing alarmingly. So there is pressing need for wiser management of this issue. It is needed for today and tomorrow’s healthy environment.

One of the severest problems the Planet is currently facing is waste, hazardous, harmful and less harmful. Among them, the volume of used and nonfunctioning electronic goods filling up the world’s dumps is growing alarmingly. This is so alarming that the coming generation would find itself caught in the nightmare of diseases and poor living environments. This poor state of affairs is not only harmful to humans, but all the flora and fauna of the world would get affected and life on the Planet would be nearly impossible.

This deadlock needs immediate attention of one and all. How best can the world take care of it? Or, who will bell the cat? What I for one find is that corporate giants, including computer manufacturers such as Apple, IBM, Dell and HP; electronics manufacturers such as Toshiba and Motorola; cellular manufacturers such as Nokia and Verizon, to mention a few, should initiate a combined effort to see that the wastes their products and services generate are responsibly managed. Once they show a feasible way out, the smaller organizations would follow suit.

Winding up the discussion, I find it right to say that all environmental issues are absolutely manmade. Therefore, it is the need of the hour that man himself takes up this issue not only for his immediate wellbeing, but also for the sake of all the generation to come.
