文章核心主题:“电子废物的环境困局:全球治理与可持续应对”
Computer technology is advancing so fast that old hardware quickly
becomecompletely obsolete. The electronic waster ( e-waste) from this
constantly growing fieldis polluting the environment, both here and abroad.
Computers contain toxic( 有 毒 的 ) materials such as lead. Despite the
danger ofthrowing these hazardous materials in a landfll( 垃 圾 填 埋 场 ),that's
exactly wheretons of computers end up. Americans reuse or recycle only
about 10 percent of the $0million computers they replace each year,
according to ABC News.
Eighty percent is being stockpiled( 囤 积 ),which could create even
biggerproblems in the future, and the remaining 10 percent is landflled.
Throwing e-waste inlandflls creates a potential for toxic waste leak into our
soil and groundwater. Becausstandards for landflls are tougher in the United
States than in many other counties.e-waste is often exported, especially to
some developing countries.
Some countries are creating policies to deal with the growing e-waste
problem. hthe Netherlands, you can bring your old computer to the seller
when buying a new one.and the seller must by law accept it free of charge.
Japan passed a law in 2001 requiringproducers to recycle certain parts.
In the united states, a movement called the Computer TakeBack Campaig!
is demanding that producers take more responsibility for disposing ( 处
理 )ofoldcomputers, California and Massachusetts recently prohibited certain
computer pars ilandflls, while Apple and lBM take back computers for about a
$30 fee.
Gateway is one step ahead: They will pay you $50 for recycling your old
compwhen you buy a new one from them. Lastly, many nonprofit programs
accept used equipment, and services have popped up that distribute old
computers to schools andother organizations.
