The top 5 accounted for ~70% of the items.

260 million disposable vapes

30 million LED, solar and decorative lights

26 million cables

10 million USB sticks

7 million cordless headphones

Maybe USB-C helps with the cables, I’m guessing many of those are failed cables though. In any case, I don’t think it will address disposable vapes or decorative lights.

Anyway, I dispute the 95% of gadgets number. I don’t think we can be too surprised disposable vapes ended up in the trash.
