I completely agree! There is a huge problem in China since they buy our electronic trash to make people extract the pieces and re sell the good parts. But this practice is poising children who have no other means of survival (ironic no?)

Maybe the way bottle companies use 50% recycled bottles, computer companies could do the same and reuse the good parts in the trash; but this includes that they are the ones doing the extraction of the parts in a non hazardous manner.
