We all live in one world and one environment. So whether you're watching this video in Spain, Germany, London, New York, or California, or in Shanghai, we all have one environment and it's up to us to take care of it. The appropriate disposal of electronic waste - which is the fastest growing solid waste stream in the world - is paramount to us preserving our environment and passing on a legacy of a better environment to our children and grandchildren than we inherited. We cannot continue to further liquidate the environment by disposing all the wonderful gadgets and technology that makes our life better on this earth everyday inappropriately. We have to get with the program and get rid of our e-waste in an environmentally friendly way. We're out of time. The moment of truth is here.
