Environmental Activists Expose Dangers of E-Waste

Wed, 19 Nov 2008 10:48:26 -0500

November 14, 2008, Delhi, India: In the streets of Mustaffabad, a poor quarter of Delhi, children in sandals sit on top of piles of broken glass and twisted metal, smashing computer monitors. Men with blowtorches melt circuit boards, while nearby, women sort and scrub other boards with diluted acid. Charred fiberglass and copper dust litter the ground.

This is the world of the electronic waste (e-waste) recyclers, who make a living by tearing apart the toxic remains of old home computers, cell phones and printer cartridges from the United States and other coun...

Dear AOKW Luminaries and Friends,

I read an inrteresting article once about a retirement housing building. The owners installed solar. As they expected their electric bills went down. But there was a far more interesting outcome….. Suddenly the recycle bins were filled to over flowing, the water bill went down, and the trash bins were 1/3 as full as before (recycleable items being separated I imagine) and the gas bill for heatinh whent down 50%. No survey was taken as to why everyone became eco-conscience as soon as the solar was up and running but it certainly points to a community effort and simple shame factor ...

The easy answer is no. They’re separate groups, with different criteria for certification. That doesn’t, however, mean that RAC coffee ignores social change.

The RA and Fair Trade are a bit different in the way they go about it. Fair Trade’s focus is financial stability for the farmers, which can only happen if they’re healthy and able to work, and if they manage their crop to minimize loss. So their environmental policies are aimed at reaching that financial end.

Are there limits to rewards, or are rewards necessarily derived from another’s “punishment”?

The limits to rewards exist. And these rewards are decided by the market. Despite Newman’s Own juice does great things with its profits, the market would not spend $50 for a glass of it.

As for punishment of the adverse industries, its quite simple; either avoid them or reduce your consumption. It’s when the bottom line contracts that people start to sweat and take a good look at where their business is going.

I grew up in Honolulu where outdoor advertising has been banned since at least the 1960s. Exemptions had to be granted when Wyland (an artist) painted a giant mural of a whale since the law considered almost anything decorative that could be seen from outside as advertising. Today the modified law still stands and even was used to ban billboard trucks (the ones that tow billboards around the city). Only indoor billboards are allowed, which are wall sized ads in places like parking garages, shopping malls etc, so long as they can not be seen from outside. Signs with ONL...

one other point – EXTERNALIZING.

capitalism is based on externalizing as many costs as possible and internalizing as many profits as possible, something this article hints at when the author mentions the true cost of oil. That externalizing takes all kinds of forms – from the smokestack that spews carcinogens into the air to the fact that as an employee your expected to pay the cost of getting to and from your job out of your own pocket. The most fundamental rule of the profit system is that the more you can avoid paying the higher your p...

the part that people are missing is that the “bad guys” who exploit scarce finite resources make big money exactly BECAUSE the resources they’re exploiting are finite. That’s basic supply and demand. Oil is valuable because it’s difficult to get to and because there’s always a demand for more of it then is actually available. In other words, the fundamental pricing structure of capitalism is such that companies that are exploiting finite and irreplaceable natural resources are virtually guaranteed to be profitable as long a...

That’s a whole lot of mouths that could be fed. But, I think we need to understand the complete picture of big business before we ask them to give all the big profits away.

First of all, its important for us to remember that the big guys didn’t just start out big… they were small at one point in time. For example: In the late 80’s, an associate of mine started a small busin...
