The Environment: While riding a mower yesterday, I got my fill of the last months 60 minutes from my ipod that I haven't been able to keep up with. If you have a concern about the environment, I encourage you to listen/watch to this piece on the United States electronic garbage industry. Scott Pelly explores how a waste management company exports electronic garbage to Hong Kong, looks at an industry whose intention is to take the metals and chemicals we most easily and often throw away for profit, and all of this with a cancer and death rate multiple times higher with those handling this material than our highest illegal levels in the United States. Well done Scott.
