Following the E-waste Trail

July 30, 2009 - 9:04 am 14 Comments

Greenpeace has been investigating the immoral and illegal e-waste dumping in developing countries since 2002. After China, India, Pakistan and Ghana, this is the story of how one very broken TV managed to avoid being tested and recycled according to EU regulations and instead ended up in Nigeria as “second hand goods”

    Oh I forgot, go …
    Oh I forgot, go after Al Gore too, for having a half dozen gasoline guzzling cars drive him and his family to an environmental speech. Yes, the one where his LIMOUSINE DRIVER sat outside with the engine running and the air conditioning on! HYPOCRITE!

    Fuck nigeria. They …
    nigeria. They run enough scams, the criminals there can buy their own people a ed television.

    Why the should I pay to have my old TV end up in nigeria so some hat can get it for free, THEN HAVE HIM THROW IT AWAY IN A LANDFUILL IN NIGERIA? You people are stupid. Look at ALL the energy wasted shipping a TV to nigeria. Throw it away in a sealed landfill and have the carbon footprint END THERE. When it fills up, process it and clean the area safely. DUH.
