Abstract
The problem of electronic waste in recent years has attracted much attention. Such waste contains a variety of materials such as precious metals and dangerous toxins that are harmful to humans and the environment. In addition, in developed countries, in parallel with providing facilities, the emphasis has been put on the role of environmental education and knowledge, but in most developing countries, like Iran, the problem of electronic waste has not yet been considered. The present study seeks to examine the role of environmental education in electronic waste management, and to offer some solutions to achieve this goal. Statistical society of this study includes students of Mazandaran University, and interview technique is used for data collection. The study determined that the government and municipalities programs for collection, separation and recycling of such waste, can have an effective role in reducing waste and appropriate behavior to be with them.
