Burning Electronic Cables in Ghana
Boy burning electronic cables and other electrical components in order to melt off the plastic and reclaim the copper wiring. This burning in small fires releases toxic chemicals into the environment.
The majority of second-hand electrical goods that are imported to Ghana from developed countries are beyond repair and are either dumped or "recycled" in this crude fashion.
