The problem of e-waste

E-waste is very precious, there are metals, copper, argent, gold an much more in it. But the bulk of e-waste constatly grows up. The Germans recycle much of it but what happens with the rest of the trash? The people prefer to buy new electrical devices, the effects of it aren't good for the whole environment.

There are million tons of e-waste every year, the most precious things are mobile phones and computers because of the gold, argent and copper in it. The problem is that many people don't bring their cell phones to recycle it, they throw it to the household waste or keep them in drawers.
The reason why we buy more electrical things than ten years ago is that the firms which produce it give them a "shorter life", they use less durable materials because they want to earn more money. And if something is out of order, the people buy new things, they don't send it to a repair because it's too expensive, it is more trouble than it's worth.
The problem of recycling is that there are also many toxic materials in the waste so it's very difficult for the restorer to seperate the toxic and not toxic stuffs. Another problem is the big bulk of the e-waste.
Many countries bring their electronic scrap for recycling illegal to Asia and Africa. The toilers for example in Ghana work without any protection, they burn toxic materials to get the valuable stuff for selling. The most of the workers are children and men, they are ill because of the toxic gases, they have pain in their heads and stomachs, the children get cancer.
