Making people and ideas findable
E-Wasteland
Graphic look at how US electronics waste is being dumped on developing nations...and how well-intentioned citizens unwittingly contribute to the problem. If you recycle -- ASK questions, "How do you process?" "Do you do it yourself or use downstream vendors?" "Where are your TV's going (especially dangerous component in the e-waste stream) "Can I see?"
Follow up, do your research -- it is the fastest and most effective way to put an end to this practice.
This is a must see for anyone interested in the environment -- 12 minutes and completely worth the 15 second commericial viewing at front

Comment by Steve Weigle on December 17, 2008 at 1:43pm - Horrendous. My company deals with recyclers that specify that they will not ship to China, but you just don't know what happens once you have turned these products over to them.
