(Terry Collins Assoc) Seven UN entities have come together, supported by the World Economic Forum and the World Business Council for Sustainable Development to address e-waste.A new joint report shows that the world now discards approximately 50 million tons of electronic and electrical waste (e-waste) per year, greater in weight than all of the commercial airliners ever made; only 20 percent is formally recycled. If nothing changes, United Nations University predicts e-waste could nearly triple to 120 million tonnes by 2050.
