E-Stewards Webinar on SEERA #ewaste legislation today. 8 Questions for 3 Privileged Boomers

Three experts - Jim Puckett, Bob Houghton, and Niel Peters-Michaud are three Boomer White Guy Experts who will tell us all why people should be arrested if they sell used electronics to a willing buyer from Emerging Markets in Asia, Africa, and Latin America. 

Most of those people who sell there are part of the diaspora - expatriate Asians, Africans, and Latin Americans (like Joseph "Hurricane" Benson). Nobody like that is represented on this panel of experts.

Here are some questions in advance:

Last Chance to Register: ANNOUNCING a new E-STEWARDS WEBINAR

1) What is the average years of use of new devices sold to ("rich nation") OECD?

2) What is the average years of use of new devices sold to ("poor nation") non-OECD?

3) What is the average years of use of used devices in OECD?

4) What is the average years of use of used devices in the non-OECD?

In the not-so distant past, Jim Puckett and Bob Houghton both claimed that 80% of exports of used devices (#4) to Emerging Markets was waste.  After every single study showed 1) that's not economically even possible, and 2) no sample comes remotely similar to Jim's claim, and 3) Jim's source for Agbogbloshie (Mike "Fishing as a Boy" Anane) was making everything up or citing Jim.

Confronted in 2013 with the Big Lie about 80% of E-Waste, Jim changed his answer to "no one knows, but it is illegal".

So a few more questions:

5) If no one knows, why should it be illegal?

6) If it is illegal, why do we need a new SEERA law to make it illegal?

7) What makes the 3 white guys experts on what Africa, Asia and Latin America Tech Sector buyers do, or should be allowed to do, with used electronics they want to buy from us?

8) What is the profit motive of Bob Houghton, Jim Puckett, and Niel Peters-Michaud?  Don't they all benefit from the 80% false claim?

I've registered for the event but have a conflict (also registered and presenting at New York Federation of Solid Waste and Recycling Conference). Hoping someone else will find out exactly why these three men are superior to Joseph "Hurricane" Benson, who thanks to Jim Puckett, was sentenced to years in prison for buying used hotel CRT takeouts in 2010.

These three OK Boomers don't seem to have any awareness of their privilege in defining that used goods are waste because they can afford to buy brand new - thanks largely to the money all three men get from the OEMs who sell brand new and who don't want to compete with used goods in a secondhand market.
