They contaminate the soil, and water supplies near them. They are mainly composed of plastic,glass,silicon,lead and other material's.

No computers do not save the environment
List and explain the three areas of how computers affect management
A material that can be harmful if not properly disposed of is hazardous.
If there are laws that make it illegal to dispose of computers in landfills, they are local ones. Some landfills will not allow computers to be disposed of in them. Many cities and towns have special days when computers are picked up and disposed of properly.
Prolonged use can cause wrist/arm and back problems.
Making the raw material from which computers are made for starters involves the introduction into the environment of many pollutants, running them and their ancillaries takes energy this puts yet more pollutants in the air. and the batteries that run laptops are returned to pollute the environment. Semiconductors are mined by poor people in back country areas where food is not available, but Gorillas for instance are, these animals are killed to be eaten while the materials needed to produce our computers is being acquired. Regardless of what the company's say regarding recycling the truth is that only a small proportion of these devices are disposed of responsibly.
Yes, computers contribute to pollution primarily through the energy they consume during use, manufacturing, and disposal. The production of computer components involves mining raw materials, which can lead to environmental degradation. Additionally, electronic waste from discarded computers can release harmful chemicals into the environment if not properly recycled.
The process of dissolving PLA (polylactic acid) can affect the environment by releasing greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, during decomposition. This can contribute to climate change. Additionally, if not properly disposed of, PLA can contaminate soil and water, harming ecosystems and wildlife. Proper disposal and recycling of PLA are important to minimize its environmental impact.
How do faults affect the environment
It is detrimental to the environment and humans if batteries are not disposed of in a responsible way because it can cause pollution. This pollution can kill plants and animals that humans rely on.
Electronic solid waste includes computers, monitors, keyboards, printers, TVs, stereos, copiers, cables, networking hardware, and other small electronic items. These items contain lead and other substances which are harmful to the environment if disposed of improperly.
