E-Waste

We've talked about e-waste before, mostly in regards to the businesses and lives run off of our waste in Mumbai, India, the resulting health problems and a few other factoids I learned from Thomas Kostigen, but sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words. Or in this case, a photo essay about the e-waste business in Guiyu, China is. Pay close attention to the notes below the pictures too.

The accompanying article is a quick, worthwhile read as well - especially if the images made you pause and reconsider your e-waste disposal methods.
