Solution

The correct option is C

Recycling


Irreparable computers and other electronic goods are known as electronic wastes (e-wastes). E-wastes are buried in landfills or incinerated. Over half of the e-waste generated in the developed world are exported to developing countries, mainly to China, India, and Pakistan, where metals like copper, iron, silicon, nickel, and gold are recovered during the recycling process. Eventually, recycling is the only solution for the treatment of e-wastes, provided it is carried out in an eco-friendly manner.
