I like IFIXIT. With that said... Their weekend's "ewaste" blog titled
is correct in its emphasis on the word "blindly"... don't blindly do anything. But Elizabeth Chamberlin also provides evidence that you shouldn't blindly trust EU Law, or Greenpeace and E-Stewards, either.
If you watch the Greenpeace slide show, you might think I'm saying you shouldn't trust your own eyes... ( I covered this 2009 Greenpeace "science with photos" with the post "WRONG, WRONG, WRONG..." )
Chamberlin trusts her eyes and is doing what she should be doing - looking at all sides of the ewaste-to-Africa debate. Now I'm gonna go Ozark Atticus Finch on her. Where is Greenpeace's interview of the accused? They have the African Tech there on camera, and say he told them it was not a working TV but they bought it anyway. What exactly does their methodology prove, and why didn't they ask the African they spoke to what the percentage of reuse was, and what his losses were on the bad units?
MORE PROOF YOU SHOULDN’T BLINDLY TRUST YOUR E-WASTE RECYCLER
