General Studies · Paragraph Summary and Conclusion
Passage: Considering the rapid rate at which solar photovoltaic (PV) panels are being installed, India is projected to generate an enormous amount of PV waste over the next few decades, making it one of the top five leading photovoltaic waste producers worldwide by 2050. India must prepare itself for this emerging challenge for two primary reasons. First, simply clubbing PV waste with other electronic waste (e-waste) could lead to regulatory confusion. Secondly, waste generated from PV modules and their components contains materials classified as 'hazardous waste' in India. Which of the following serves as the most logical main conclusion of the passage?
- 1India should formulate and implement a specific, separate regulatory framework for PV waste treatment within or alongside its general e-waste guidelines.✓
- 2E-waste management often involves complex bureaucratic regulations that are difficult for new companies to navigate.
- 3E-waste recycling requires highly specialized equipment and technical expertise that is unavailable in developing countries.
- 4Implementing e-waste management programs can be prohibitively expensive and requires immense financial restructuring.
Correct answer
India should formulate and implement a specific, separate regulatory framework for PV waste treatment within or alongside its general e-waste guidelines.
