Is the Future Looking Good with Computer Recycling?

By Chris Keenan

Published 03/11/2021

The modern world is filled with wonder, we are entering a time of spectacular innovation in Information Technology. Today’s computers unite us globally like never before. Freeing us to advance the sciences, cure illnesses and work together to accomplish our goals. Today we can work from any place, at any time we choose. Free to conduct business on our terms. These amazing advancements in Information Technology can even be powered by renewable energy sources, such as, solar, wind & hydroelectrical energy.

However, as with most utopian ideas there’s an unspoken dark side, hidden in plain sight. Nature is destroyed, air is polluted and wars are fought over the resources needed to manufacture our computers, phones and other such devices. Furthermore, as this computer equipment becomes obsolete or broken it is dumped indiscriminately in 3rd world countries to fester and poison. Even here, in the 1st World - trillions of tons of e-waste has been dumped in Landfill sites, polluting our water and the food chain we need to survive.

Problems are compounded yet further when data is recovered from dumped I.T. hardware by those with unscrupulous and immoral agendas. So grave are these problems that e-waste and data protection laws have been written to prosecute those companies failing to dispose of their IT hardware correctly. Prosecution can result in vast fines and even imprisonment.
