RATIONALE
The pervasive use of electronic devices in contemporary society has given rise to
a pressing environmental concern— the significant ecological impact of conventional
charging methods. The prevalent chargers not only contribute substantially to the
mounting electronic waste but also heavily rely on non-renewable energy sources. This
dual challenge calls for an urgent and sustainable solution to address the environmental
consequences associated with our dependency on electronic devices.
Conventional chargers contribute to the growing electronic waste crisis, as they
have a limited lifespan and are often discarded improperly. The improper disposal of
these chargers further exacerbates environmental pollution, posing risks to soil, water,
and air quality. Additionally, the energy consumed by these chargers, predominantly
derived from non-renewable sources, adds to the carbon footprint, contributing to climate
change.
As the demand for electronic devices continues to surge, so does the need for
innovative charging solutions that mitigate the adverse environmental effects. The
problem at hand encompasses both the growing electronic waste issue and the
unsustainable energy consumption associated with conventional charging methods. The
Solarized Charger Project seeks to tackle this dual problem by offering a sustainable,
renewable energy solution for charging electronic devices, thus reducing electronic waste
and promoting a cleaner and greener energy alternative.
