In 2007-08 16.8 million TVs, computers and related products reached their end of useful lives in Australia, of which 84% ended up in landfill. It's estimated that in 2028 a staggering 44 million computers and TVs will reach their end of life.
To address this escalating issue, Federal Environment Minister, Peter Garrett, has recently released a new National Waste Policy which puts computers and TVs at the forefront of recycling initiatives.
With the national framework currently being drafted, never has it been so important to bring together the key stakeholders in e-waste management to review current systems, facilitate interstate discussion and cooperation, and discuss strategies and solutions which could prove integral to Australia's future e-waste management initiatives.
Featuring presentations from:
- WEEE Forum – Keynote International Address
- Australian Information Industry Association
- Sustainability Victoria
- Sims Recycling Solutions
- Australian Council of Recycling
- E-Cycle Recovery
- Advance Security Destruction
