Abstract

“Geneva International Labour office (ILO) says work kills more people than war”. The major problem that the human race is facing now is the effects of the E-pollution caused by the electronic waste/ Industrial waste. The rate at which the e-waste is growing can cause serious damages in 2015. So an immediate solution has to be drawn to reuse or reduce the e-waste/ Industrial waste and its effects on humans. An economic solution is designed to achieve an optimal source to reuse and reduce the e-waste. An economic solution and implementation of law (Implementations of Labour Law, Industrial Law, Environment Law, Administrative Law & IPC-Sections) are designed to achieve an optimal source to reuse and reduce the Industrial waste.
