RE: E-waste: A Global menace

in #steemstem7 years ago

Hi @prettyprecy! You have done a great job here. Your hard work is quite reflective here. I just want to take a second to thank you for bringing this wonderful article on the awareness about e-waste! It is really appreciated.

Moreover, I have learnt quite new things here that- in computers alone, the circuit boards contains heavy metals like cadmium and lead. The batteries contain cadmium, poly vinyl chloride 12(PVC) copper cables which when burnt releases toxic dioxins , cathode ray tubes which contains lead oxide and barium, mercury in the flat screen and even poly chlorinated biphenyl(PCB) which can be found in computer capacitors.

I loved your article and wishing you a very happy time here! Keep steeming and bring some interesting articles like this in the coming days as well.. :)

Cheers!! :)
