Impacts of (W)EEE on Climate Change End-of-Life (WEEE) • Primary emissions (CFC containing) > GHG gases • Mitigate resource use (recycling society) • Only under proper recycling Use (EEE) • Energy consumption • Re-USE impacts linked to production prevention • Role of ICT in mitigating Climate Change > GHG gases Production (EEE) • Use of Natural resources (particularly precious & special metals) ITU Green Standards Week - Rome
The role of e-waste worldwide • Global Estimates for 2015: 58,9 Mt/y • More than 600 Mt CO2 eq potential (under EU scenario) • Growing number of countries being covered by e-waste bills • Limited EEE covered (hardly C&F appliances, Lamps) • No specific targets on EEE categories (collection & treatment) • No specific requirements on: Pre-processing (e.g. ensuring efficient GHG gas removal) End-processing (e.g. ensuring proper recovery of precious & special metals) • Countries without any e-waste bill ITU Green Standards Week - Rome
