1.During the two sessions(兩會),Lei Jun,who started China's tech company Xiaomi,called for more e-waste(電子垃圾) recycling plans in China.
"China should make plans to make full use of those unwanted phones and computers.It can reduce the country's carbon emissions(碳排放), "Lei told CCTV News.
According to a 2020 UN report,the world's e-waste will reach 74.7 million tons by 2030.That means it will increase by 100% in 16 years.This makes e-waste the world's fastest-growing domestic(家用的)waste.
The report found that only 17.4% of the world's e-waste was collected and recycled in 2019.This means that gold,silver and other high-value materials were mostly burned or thrown away instead of being reused.It's a waste of 57 billion dollars.E-waste can also be bad for the environment and people's health.For example,one phone battery can pollute 600,000 liters of water.
China is now the world's largest producer of e-waste,followed by the US,India and Japan,according to the UN report.However,tech companies are looking for different ways to solve the problem.For example,US company Apple built a robot called Daisy.It can take 200 iPhones apart within an hour and took the useful materials out.With Daisy,valuable materials can be pulled out more easily.
Xiaomi is also setting up e-waste recycling platforms,where people can give away or sell their old electronics.
