The issue of E-waste is hard to address, becasue its something that we are all guilty of. everytime you upgrade your tv, phones or Mac computers more and more waste is created. then its sent to some "developing" world country to be "recycled" but the way they do it is just as terrible as their living conditons. i remember on the video that one man was chopping a battery up with a butcher Knife.
For me, the best way to recycle my old electronics is to sell them. i get a new cell phone about every 6 months, so its easy to sell my old one because its still fairly new. With Tvs and computers, you can always turn to Ebay or Craigs List instead of the corner that your house is on. one persons trash is another persons treasure.
