The closed-cycle economy is impossible without recycling production waste. They generate 15 times more solid household waste. Technology of processing of red sludge - waste from the production of raw materials for the production of aluminum, alumina. By improving the environment, we profit from the production of iron, titanium, potassium, and rare earth metals.

Hello everyone,
I'm a new member looking for help with my master thesis (which I hope is within your okay in this forum).

I have been reading various interesting posts, which makes me believe that you all have a lot to contribute with, if you feel up for it.

I'm doing a research project focusing on consumer's perception towards the concept of obsolescence / planned obsolescence, specifically in household level electronic devices. Thus, everyone with an opinion, experience, or even just owning an electronic device is interesting to me!

As the main method used is netnography, everything is expected to happen online, preferably in written format. It can even be an open discussion right here, if wanted.

So, if you would like to answer a few question as an “interview”, share opinions and experiences, or just have any question to me or my study. Please let me know!

In advance, thank you very much.

Best regards.

Does your opinions about 'nature', 'human nature', and 'procreation' influence your recycling behavior?

I am a psychology student with The Open University, and I am interested in whether there is any connection between certain belief systems and recycling behaviors.

There is existing research that shows a strong correlation between 'self-perceived connection to nature’ and recycling behavior but there is currently no psychological literature on whether opinions about humanity (pro-human or misanthropic) and opinions about having children (pro-natal or anti-natalism) are good predictors of pro-environmental behavior.

For this reason, I have designed a short survey that measures peoples opinions about these topics. The idea is to see whether levels of these beliefs correlate with recycling intentions, attitudes and behaviors.

If you are 18 years or older then you are welcome to take part in the survey by clicking on the link below;

This link will take you to the Qualtrics website where the survey is hosted. It takes roughly 5 minutes to complete and is completely anonymous.

Thank you to anyone who replies to this post or does takes part in the survey! This research project will contribute to my final degree and will help advance our psychological understanding of recycling motivations.

Disposal of sanitary pads and its collection is a major environmental degradation concern inline with chemicals affecting female human health concerning the production of pads. Had suggested a remedial measure taking up with the Authorities in my country.?

An in-depth journal on the e-waste generation in the Caribbean SIDS, their place against the global trend in e-waste generation, SIDS-specific obstacles in setting up waste management systems, and more interesting figures & indicators.

The paper uses a dynamic material flow analysis (MFA) approach to estimate the flows and stocks of the 10 main e-waste categories across 5 Caribbean SIDS which are Aruba, Barbados, Grenada, Jamaica, and Trinidad and Tobago. While merely representing 11% of the Caribbean population and 7% of the Caribbean land area, they produced the double the e-waste per capita per year compared to the global average, and has been estimated to record a rising number of e-waste generated per year; from 27,500 tonnes in 2010 to around 59,000 tonnes in 2025.

With systemic challenges lying in setting up waste management in SIDS, such as lack of available land and financing measures, vulnerability extreme weathers, higher operational expenditures, small market sizes and more, there are also challenges in terms of data retrieval because the Caribbean lacks baseline data to the annual quantity of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) consumption and the corresponding amount e-waste generated. Trinidad and Tobago was also estimated to face higher pressure to deal with the e-waste generation among the 5 countries monitored.

With the amount of 10 main e-waste types (e.g., household appliances, IT equipment, lighting equipment, etc.) growing and eventually taking up majority of the EEE put-on-market (consumed) which also has been saturated from 2017, the article calls for a transition from the current linear take- make- waste economy to a Circular Economy, closing the loops through recycling, reuse, refurbishment, and remanufacturing.
