I was watching this on Current Tv and this kinda intreges me because I know the US and other countries throw away large amounts of garbage; in result creating a large pile of E-waste[the quickest of the size of Manhattan]. After, seeing so much electronic parts and other electronic components, in my wildest dream would not imagined it becomes a big environmental problem. Although, all these parts are being recycled, which is great, but melting the components can very hardzous to your health and dangerous.
