Submitted by Matt on Fri, 08/08/2008 - 12:25
National Geographic's "High Tech Trash" is loaded with everything from an interactive toxic tour of a computer to an e-waste quiz to stats like ". . . in the U.S. [in 2005], between 1.5 and 1.9 million tons of computers, TVs, VCRs, monitors, cell phones, and other equipment were discarded. If all sources of electronic waste are tallied, it could total 50 million tons a year worldwide . . ." The Photo Gallery tells the story most powerfully - check it out!
More e-waste photos from Ghana and other areas.
(The only thing I could not find is National Geographic's own Website Statement of Sustainability!)
