Abstract

The protection of public health and the advancement of sustainable development depend on the right to a healthy environment, which is becoming more widely acknowledged as a fundamental human right. Effective environmental management techniques, such as the control of electronic waste, or “e-waste,” are intrinsically tied to this right. One of the waste streams with the greatest rate of growth in the world is e-waste, which is caused by the rapid obsolescence and widespread use of electronic gadgets.
