Panorama

Track My Trash (2011x20)

: 16, 2011

How does a broken TV thrown out at a council site in London end up 3,000 miles away on a toxic dump in West Africa where children scavenge for metal waste in a cocktail of poisonous fumes? Using tracking equipment inside broken TV sets, Panorama investigates the illegal market in electronic waste - and the recycling companies whose green credentials may not be all they claim.
