The E-Waste Tragedy
Sinossi
On the outskirts of Accra, the capital of Ghana, poor children dismantle and process the discarded electronic equipment, in an environment filled with foul stench and toxic fumes.
In search of answers, the inquisitive journalist, Mike Anane, sets out on a journey across Europe, Asia, and the United States of America, only to find out that almost three-quarters of the discarded electronics end up in the hands of international smuggling nets--even though there are thousands of recycling factories.
Furthermore, the use of a staggering 10% of the globe's resources of precious metals such as gold, silver, and copper, leads to the alarming conclusion that we are rapidly depleting our resources.
In the end, the world is fighting a lost battle against bureaucracy, corruption, and profit, unless we, as individuals, understand that the consumer frenzy for newer and better devices will inevitably result in a planet crammed with toxic waste.
Is this the future we want for our children?
