What time will it be when folks wake up to the fact that all our gadgets and geegaws (I’m guilty!! I love my gadgets!!) are having a horrible effect on our planet.

Lead can cause damage to the central and peripheral nervous systems, blood system and kidneys in humans. Effects on the endocrine system have also been observed and its serious negative effects on children’s brain development has been well documented. Lead accumulates in the environment and has high acute and chronic toxic effects on plants, animals and microorganisms.
Consumer electronics constitute 40% of lead found in landfills.
