Explanation:

E-waste is considered to be the waste that is emitted from electronic devices. They are considered harmful for lives of animal and human beings if not disposed off properly, as the harmful material seeps through the ground and pollutes land and sea.

The  federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) has laws in place which requires the hazardous materials like electronics which contain cathode ray tubes are to be disposed off properly. If not, their use should be minimized in the electronic devices and a less hazardous material should be used.
