eWaste Calculator 1.0.3

The e-Stewards Global Environmental Impact Calculator, commonly referred to as the eWaste Calculator, serves as a valuable tool for assessing the environmental benefits associated with utilizing e-Stewards Recyclers. Users can input either the number or weight of electronic waste they plan to recycle, along with specific details about various types of used electronics. The calculator then provides insight into several key environmental impacts:

• Toxins Diverted: This metric indicates the amount of harmful substances that are prevented from ending up in landfills or being dispersed into the environment.
• Critical Metals Saved: This figure represents the quantity of valuable metals that are recycled rather than discarded.
• Greenhouse Gases Avoided: This statistic reflects the reduction in greenhouse gas emissions achieved through responsible recycling practices.

The data generated by the calculator can be instrumental in illustrating and quantifying the environmental responsibility of both individuals and organizations.
