Do you ever wonder, as you throw away old equipment or use yet another length of wire, what the real environmental impact of people like us, who depend on metals, is?
If so, then this is worth a watch. I've seen similar mines in person in Peru, and they are not a pretty sight.
Use your copper wisely, and recycle it as much as possible!
And indeed recycle it yourself. But it is not always possible. What do you think will happen with all our electronic waste when it is so called recycled?

We close our eyes and buy electric cars and other things that will keep "our" environment healthy.
