end the export of electronic equipment as well as lessen and monitor more carefully the effects that e-waste produces

Created by E.D. on March 06, 2013

The production of e-waste and the "recycling" of out of date/old computers and electronics has gotton out of hand. The environment is suffering due to the chemicals and natural resources that are found in everyday computers, as well as the developing foreign countries, who end up carrying the burden for the United States of America. In this technologically advanced age that the United States and the world is in, computers and other electronic devices can and will be thrown away for a newer product, leaving their predecessors to be dealt with in the cheapest way possible. Cheap is not always the best option and the Earth is feeling its effects now.
