The rapid advances in computer technology mean that we as consumers are continually upgrading and increasingly discarding. E-Scraps not only takes up space in landfills, but it is a major source of toxic chemicals like lead, mercury, cadmium, zinc, beryllium, nickel, and brominated flame retardants, all of which can leach into the environment and our bodies.
