which has the only license in India to import e-waste is reselling e-waste instead of recycling it. It is illegally trading e-waste, and such illegal trade results in huge pollution in the industry. As per the data, India generated 3,30,000 tonnes of e-waste in 2007 which is equal to 110 mn laptops. About 10% of the e-waste generated is recycled every year; the remaining is refurbished, and the unorganized sector is right behind almost all of it. Informal dealers refurbish and make money from e-waste. According to CSE, the governments new draft rules with regard to waste management ignore the reality and are likely to be toothless. It is estimated that illegal import of e-waste in the country stands at about 50,000 tonnes annually and loopholes in the laws facilitate this. "We need to think how we can build a new model for waste managers. Instead of thinking about replacing small, cost effective garbage collectors with big business, we have to think how policy can legalize, regulate and even pay for this trade to happen not out of sight, but under our noses," says Sunita Narain, director, CSE. It is being reported that the free trade agreements currently being negotiated with the European Union and Japan include provisions for these countries to dump their e-waste in India. If this trend continues, India will soon become dumping ground for the global e-waste. Its our duty to prevent such a global disaster.
