Abstract

The Budget document is spot on when it observes that the transition to a circular economy is expected to help enhance productivity and create new jobs. This is true for many sectors, including the booming electronics manufacturing industry. Electronic waste generation is a rapidly growing problem: The total global e-waste generation in 2022 is projected to approach 60 million metric tons. In the absence of a circular economy, most of this e-waste will continue to end up in landfills.
