Abstract

With the rapid development of science and technology, electronic products have been produced much more than before, and they are used more and more widely. In addition, a great number of characteristics that electronic products have, such as large quantity, fast production, complex composition and structure, and difficult treatment will make more and more e-waste generated. At the same time, more and more greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide are produced all around the world. This terrible situation makes the life system be faced with a serious threat. As a result, climate change has become a global problem for humans. Therefore, the concept of carbon neutralization was proposed. In the process of achieving carbon neutrality and reducing the generation of e-waste, consumer behavior plays a crucial role, especially when consumers need to pay an average premium for sustainable products. Based on the research on consumer behavior in the new era, this paper summarizes the impact of consumer behavior on e-waste and carbon neutralization. After that, we will continue to propose relevant measures to reduce the production of e-waste and greenhouse gas by influencing consumer behavior.
