The e-waste problem has reached crisis levels, according to a report by the World Economic Forum. The numbers tell the story: 50 million tons of e-waste are produced globally each year and, left unchecked, this could more than double to 120 million tons by 2050.
As dire as the situation sounds, IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) companies are particularly well-positioned to play an important role in keeping used and old computer equipment out of our landfills.
