Website: https://i.unu.edu/media/ias.unu.edu-en/news/7916/Global-E-waste-Monitor-2014-large.pdf To give a more accurate overview of the magnitude of the e-waste problem in different regions. The e-waste volumes are indicative of the recycling industries’ potential to recover secondary resources, as well as setting environmental targets for detoxification. This information is also necessary for policymakers to identify the need for action. By tracking the destinations of the waste stream, this monitor can also provide useful baseline information for establishing the necessary infrastructure to collect, finance and treat e-waste.
