Sarah Westervelt, from international watchdog organisation the Basel Action Network (BAN), will speak on the illicit trade in computer waste here & abroad. Audience discussion to follow. The Creaking Planks will recycle and repurpose salvageable components of defunct and formerly toxic popular musics. More info: ban.org or phone Free Geek at 604-879-4335. Click HERE to view a trailer for the Digital Dump. "Most citizens, governments and businesses have blinders on concerning sham reuse and recycling of their e-waste. 'The Digital Dump' rips those blinders away. Save your breath. Show the film. Then talk. You will have instant allies asking honest questions. That's how change happens." -- Mr. Sego Jackson, Principal Planner of Snohomish County, Washington State, Solid Waste Management Division and NEPSI (National Electronics Product Stewardship Initiative) stakeholder. This event is sponsored by the Recycling Council of British Columbia and we of Free Geek.
