Show Notes
Canadians are discarding electronics at an alarming pace, with a new study predicting two point three million tons of e-waste between 2025 and 2030. This waste contains hazardous materials that harm ecosystems and people, and forces more mining and pollution. The main driver is people replacing gadgets too soon, even when they still work. Experts suggest repairing devices longer and checking second-hand markets. Shifting to refurbished options can cut waste and save money, helping build a greener habit for everyone.
