Conservatism or prudence is a major building block in financial reporting. Earnings and asset values should not be overstated whilst liabilities and expenses should be accounted for in full. This helps guard against potential financial statement manipulation and misrepresentation. Asset valuation, on the other land, is unavoidably judgmental, and conservatism always plays a rol...

家電製品廃棄物のリサイクル

 

現在のリサイクル率は低迷中

家電製品廃棄物はe-waste, e-scrapとも表記されます。即ち壊れたり古くなったりした家電製品は処分されます。コンピューター、モニター、テレビ、携帯電話、電池、ステレオ・セットなどが良くある家電製品廃棄物です。家電製品の寿命が尽きたり、もう使用しなくなったりした後にゴミ埋立地に捨てたり、焼却すれば環境へ悪影響を与えますし人の健康への影響も甚大です。ですから家電製品を適切な方法で処分し、環境や人体への悪影響を最小限に抑えることが期待されています。リサイクルは家電製品の処分方法として最適な方法とされています。現在は先進諸国でさえ、家電製品のリサイクル率は低いのです。2000年以来、米国の家電製品のゴミの量は増え続け、2011年には341万トンとなっています。しかしながらリサイクル率は24.9％ととても低いのです。 

家電製品は先進諸国から発展途上国へと流通します。

家電製品は、リサイクル率が低いので先進諸国から発展途上国へと輸出されます。世界の主要な家電製品廃棄物輸出国は、北アメリカ、西ヨーロッパ、日本、韓国及びオーストラリアです。現在、世界で家電製品廃棄物のリサイクル活動が盛んなのは、中国、インド、フィリピン、ナイジェリア、パキスタン及びガーナです。一般的には、西アフリカに対して小規模な輸出が行われ、より大規模で構造的且つ組織化された輸出が南東アジアに対して行われます。
