Internet and E-waste Awareness
Journal Title: Universal Journal of Environmental Research and Technology - Year 2014, Vol 4, Issue 5
Abstract
New inventions of man keep on taking the human race to the next level day by day. Though these inventions are beneficiary to the better living and life style of human being, sometimes it also creates adverse effects on environment which in turn affects the people on this earth. Thus it has become a great challenge for us to protect and preserve the nature from the destructions of modern technology. Day by day the usage of computers is multiplying and the usage of the internet also in on the increase. So as the need for the computers and electronic gadgets also is increasing every day. E-waste has become one of the major problems to day. So, there is need for saving the people from the e-waste phenomenon. As the usage of internet and blog users is growing rapidly, there is a possibility of creating awareness through blogs. The findings of the study reveals how blogging which is an integral part of internet addresses the e-waste related problems confronted by us and the ways it can be managed efficiently.
