The Sustainable Practices Committee of Mehr Chand Mahajan DAV College for Women, Chandigarh organised \u2018E-Safe\u2019- an event to mark the celebration of International E-waste Day. The aim of the celebration was to generate awareness regarding the hazards of e-waste and its proper disposal by handing it over to authorized recyclers instead of giving it to scrap dealers. As part of the celebration, the college signed an agreement with Ortech India Corporation, Baddi, Himachal Pradesh, an authorized recycler under Chandigarh Pollution Control Board. The students and faculty members were encouraged to get e-waste from their homes and put it in the red bin already installed in the college for e-waste collection. The Committee handed over 67 kg of collected e-waste to the recycler for its proper disposal. On this occasion, Mr. Rohit Puri, Director, Ortech India Corporation delivered an awareness lecture about the hazardous impacts of e-waste on the environment and how we are exposed to the toxic chemicals present in e-waste. For more awareness, students were shown an animated video on e-waste. A total of 52 students and faculty members attended the lecture.<\/p>\n

Principal Dr. Nisha Bhargava lauded this initiative of the Sustainable Practices Committee for bringing into spotlight the problem of e-waste which has assumed huge proportions owing to Covid-19 outbreak which led to drastic increase in the usage of e-products, resulting in tonnes of e-waste generation. She expressed hope that this endeavour would sensitise consumers about e-waste and help in making circularity a reality for e-products.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
