Why your old mobile phone may be polluting Thailand
Why your old mobile phone may be polluting Thailand
The Asian nation is importing thousands of tonnes of electronic waste per year, despite a ban.
Nah, my old mobile phone is in a drawer in my basement.
Mine too, all six of them. Just in case.
Checking in, I got at least six lying around this house. You never know.
Mine too.
Let me guess, "corporate greed"?
That's usually the answer to these kind of questions.
Also: Useless/Corrupt/Evil politicians
More likely small and medium business greed like we saw it with plastic in China.
Would be great if they were easily and cheaply repaired. Nor made "obsolete" in two years via arbitrary updates.
“Why phone companies old mobile phones may be polluting Thailand“
I think that may be a better headline
Thank you. Everyone either has their old phones in a box under their bed or they traded them in to a COMPANY who apparently proceeded dump them into thialand.
All my old phones are polluting a box in my basement. They will be inherited to my kids when I die.
Nope, I've still got every phone I've ever had except for one that I gave away to someone who lost theirs.
Yeah. My old phones are in my house somewhere.
