    “Seelampur processes approximately 30,000 tonnes (33,069 tons) of e-waste daily, providing employment to nearly 50,000 informal workers”

    That’s a whole lot of e-waste. Planned obsolescence is just another example of corporate greed ruining the environment for short term profit. It’s infuriating that it’s just business as usual at this point.
