The impact of our actions…

E-waste products contain many harmful chemicals such as lead, mercury  

and heavy metals.

These harmful chemicals from the e-waste products seep into the ground
 
and local ecosystem, polluting the ground and water; killing plants and fish
 
and contaminating drinking water.

 
The impact of e-waste in poorer countries is devastating. If the waste is not
 
stored properly it ends up sitting in pools of toxic waste and causing health
 
problems for those who process it.

 
In humans the waste can lead to infertility, respiratory illness and cancer.


Recycle your appliances and save the people and environment!
