E-waste is one of the biggest deals in world. The EPA estimates that in the U.S. that every year, between 1.5 and 1.9 million tons of computers, TVs, VCRs, monitors, cell phones, and other equipment were discarded. After people throw this thing away what happen to them, No body know. Most waste and harmful waste are from Electronics such as monitor, T.V. Most dangerous chemical such as Lead, Mercury, PVC, and cadmium etc are in our monitor and CPU, if we get exposed to these chemical we might get some serious damages to our body. China in particular has long been the world's electronics graveyard. Now a day’s Government are trying to run a big recycling program on Electronics in USA and also China. But some of the countries just threw those electronics in forest, river and oceans which harms are a lot of living creatures in oceans and also environment. Now you decide if we should take big steps towards E-waste or just let this happen.

I think we should make a step into saving our environment. We should start recycling our selves if no one else wants to do it.Its not fair that we just let other people take our waste because we dont know what to do with it. A lot of human beings are being killed because of the dangerous toxics in the air.we should put a stop to this.
