Repairing and maintaining used electronics

386

Below are interviews recorded with people who repair and maintain used electronics. These interviews provide a substantial set of qualitative evidence for thinking carefully about electronic waste -- what it is, who deals with it, where, when, and under what conditions. In one way or another, almost everyone in these interviews addresses working with used or discarded electronics which, according to some definitions, would count as 'e-waste'.

Quantitative work to characterize what might be called the 'environmental offsets' of the reuse, repair, refurbishment, and recycling of electronics by people in this sector is ongoing.
