Abstract
This study aims to examine strategies and approaches that are designed to reduce the production of electronic waste. The primary methodologies encompass the development of electronic goods with enhanced durability and repairability, the facilitation of consumer education and awareness, the implementation of circular economy initiatives such as refurbishing and remanufacturing, the establishment of take-back and recycling programs, and the enactment of legislative and policy measures. These methods collectively contribute to the reduction of electronic waste by prolonging the lifespan of products, fostering responsible consumption, advocating for reuse and recycling, and establishing a regulatory framework that supports these efforts. Through the implementation of these strategies, it is possible to mitigate the environmental consequences associated with electronic waste, thereby fostering a more sustainable and resource-efficient electronic industry.
