E-WASTE
Why So Much Junk?
A Theretasks no doubt that electronic and electric goods 1) form/do/help/make our lives much easier, but unfortunately theretasks a(n) 2) money/price/expense/cost to pay for this! As technology advances at a faster pace each year, appliances and gadgets quickly become outdated. No one wants to be left behind in the technology race, so they go out and buy the latest models. The old devices just get thrown 3) away/over/off/down.
B Electronic equipment has now become more available and less costly. That means that people often replace their old computers and TVs instead of getting them repaired. Very often it is more expensive to repair an item than to buy a new one. But this practice 4) designs/creates/develops/brings tons of electronic waste, or taske-wastetask. In the USA alone, people get rid of about 250 million computers a year and only 10% are recycled.
C E-waste 5) holds/carries/contains/includes over a thousand chemicals, many of which are very toxic. Most e-waste currently 6) backs up/concludes/finishes/ends up in landfills where chemicals and heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, chromium and mercury gradually leak into the soil. So whattasks the big deal? Many of these chemicals are highly toxic and can eventually cause great harm to people.

Manufacturers are starting to 9) push/convince/ persuade/encourage more recydling and reduce the number of toxic chemicals they use. In fact, making their products more environmentally friendly has become a good selling point. Also, many countries that used to export their e-waste to poorer countries have now signed treaties to stop this practice.
E It is not just up to the governments and businesses to tackle e-waste. We can all do something. Looking after your equipment means you wontaskt need to replace it so often. A little 10) easy/simple/plain/straight maintenance, like buying a new part or getting an expert to service a device can make all the difference to the environment. It will save you money, too!
F A helpful idea for dealing 11) with/in/out/for e- waste is to sell or donate old appliances and electronic items to someone who can still use them. For example, instead of throwing our old computer out, we could take it to a technician. As technicians are often involved in computer maintenance, they would find the components useful in their repair work.
G The main way to get rid of e-waste efficiently is to recycle it. Old mobile phones, batteries and many other objects can all be taken to recycling banks. If a household object, like a fridge or washing machine, is too big for us to take ourselves, our local council can arrange to come round and 12) transport/carry/collect/ bring it. Many private recycling companies are also willing to do this.
