Abstract
The research focuses on consumers sustainable approaches for controlling electronic waste. The aim of this study is to analyse the factors that influence how consumers manage electronic waste in a particular geographical location. A thorough literature review identified the variables, which were then analyzed using the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). The data was gathered using a self-administered questionnaire from 207 respondents, using snowball sampling method in districts of Udupi, Karnataka, India. The data was analyzed with SMARTPLS 4.0, and the framework was validated with partial least squares structural equation modeling. The study indicates that factors like public awareness, publicity, and convenience significantly influence consumer behaviour regarding managing electronic waste, ultimately contributing to the establishment of a sustainable e-waste system.
