Plastic accounts for about 20% of the 50 million tonnes of e-waste produced each year, which is expected to more than double to 110m tonnes by 2050.
"Firstly and foremost, we want to raise awareness among consumers on the benefits of recycled plastics in electronics," explained Violeta Nikolova from PolyCE (Post-Consumer High-tech Recycled Polymers for a Circular Economy).
Or, just maybe, people would buy less if the (especially electronic) devices would not suffer from planned obsolescence; but that would lower consumerism and affect the economy, so better keep on buying more, but with some recycled plastic.
