Guiyu is one of the biggest e-waste centers of the world. More than a million ton of e-waste is dismantled in this Chinese village every year. Women, children and man work under terrible conditions to extract all the precious metals from circuit boards, computers, ic's and other electronics.
They often burn the plastics, circuit boards and ic's in open air without protection in order to extract the melted copper or tin. Despite the ratification of the Basel-agreement, a lot of international branded gadgets end up illegally in Guiyu.
This man assembles plastic waste form waste-dumps to try to resell it.

An abandoned Kmart in the Miller area of Gary, IN. Later it obviously became a recycling center for e-waste. However, this looks short lived - the place looks more like an illegal dump site.
There are piles and piles of printer and computer cases (inside and out), pallets of spent toner cartridges, plus boxes price scanners, AED devices, keyboards - you name it.
We set up shop at The Effra Social Club in Brixton, with lots of you eagerly waiting to repair and restore your electrical gear.
