According to the United States EPA, “Americans currently own more than 3 billion electronic products. The average American has 24 devices per household. As the use of these electronic products has grown, the average lifespan of these products becomes shorter. This in turn has resulted in increased volume of discarded and obsolete electronic devices. The resulting waste, commonly known as “e-waste,” is the fastest-growing component of the municipal waste stream in the United States. According to the Global E-Waste Monitor (2017) this has become an emerging problem worldwide, with an estimated 40 million tons of e-waste being generated every year, with less than 30 percent being recycled. The remaining e-waste materials are discarded in landfills or incinerated.” This significantly impacts the environment that we live in. According to DoSomething.org, “E-waste represents 2% of America's trash in landfills, but it equals 70% of overall toxic waste.”

Re-purposing is a way of extending the life of these devices and LPS’s Guide “Repurposing” discusses ways to re-use devices in concert with LPS’s systems and services.
