Leading digital solutions platform Globe is refocusing its E-Waste Zero Program to mobile and broadband devices in response to global industry trends on electronic waste circularity. This shift allows Globe to concentrate on reducing its value chain emissions (GHG Scope 3) and maximize its impact on e-waste circularity.
Starting September 1, 2023, Globe’s E-Waste Zero Program will focus its attention towards items that Globe distributes to the market, including old mobile phones, tablets, wearables (e.g., smart watch), broadband devices (e.g., routers, modems), and their peripherals (e.g., chargers, adapters).
"As a sustainability champion, Globe takes the lead in fostering circularity when it comes to e-waste management. By refocusing our E-Waste Zero Program, we hope to improve our direct impact to our customers and business: mobile and broadband device circularity," said Yoly Crisanto, Chief Sustainability and Corporate Communications Officer at the Globe Group.
Globe is one of 12 leading mobile providers around the world that have signed up for the new set of pace-setting targets developed with the global association of mobile network operators, GSMA.
