  • Blame Game investigates the murky world of global electronic waste disposal, where legal grey areas, a lack of investment in recycling, unscrupulous businesses and politicised application of the existing laws lead to wasted opportunities, environmental degradation and for the people of Agbogbloshie - hellish living conditions in a toxic dumping ground.

      We could make our electronics more recyclable. But since the only parameter we design our crap for is cheap production, it is always going to ens up like this.
      Making producers responsible for the entire lifecycle is not something we care about. We only want more cheaper crap to increase short term profits.

    It used to happen Jakarta as well. A lot of waste was being exported from the west, it was meant to be clean and not contaminated. It should have been waste that could be repaired or resold.. instead it was like in Ghana. Toxic and contaminated crap that has no use, even when working the hardware was so old it was near useless. Now Jakarta doesn't take the waste.
    They also burn the PCB's which are much worse than the wires. It's happening with clothing and textiles as well, it's cheaper to send a container of waste to Ghana than to correctly dispose of it in the west. It's a game of toxic hot potato.

      It is a war between manufacturers trying to prevent repairs as much as possible, and creative people trying to repair it anyway.
      Right to repair is extremely important, but most people do not care.
