59 million tons is a cube 390m on a side, or a square pile 10m high and 2500m on a side. It’s a lot, but let’s not hyperventilate.

- phkahler 2y ago>> 59 million tons is a cube 390m on a side, or a square pile 10m high and 2500m on a side. It's also 118 pounds for every person on earth. That seems really high for e-waste.
- Supermancho 2y agoNot to nitpick since it's still in the same magnitude, but I think it's more like 25.5 lbs 118,000,000,000 / 4,640,000,000 = 25.4310344828
- phkahler 2y agoI thought there were 8B people which makes it even less. I need to turn in my brain card!
