These poor people!
This is absolutely terrible, and they make nothing to last anymore so that the toxic waste will keep building up. We were told yesterday that 3-5 years is the life of a computer..... our computer died and it wasn't quite 5 years old.... If they made things to last longer instead of trying to make more and more money all the time, this waste would not be a problem. But sadly greedy corporations make nothing to last these days..... people are suffering due to their greed.

WHEN you throw out your television, you expect it to be recycled properly. The reality is much more grim.
Due to the toxic chemicals in electronic appliances — TVs, computers, stereo systems, refrigerators — the cost of disposing of such items correctly is costly and dangerous. This has made illegal dumping a lucrative business in poor regions.
