Who Pays the Price?

Nikhil Seth |

“Who Pays the Price”, a short documentary from 1974, delves deep into the Human cost of Electronics, it reveals the human right abuses and environmental impact associated with the production of electronic devices. It sheds light on issues such as labour exploitation, hazardous working conditions, and electronic waste disposal in developing countries. This specifically highlights the major issue faced by the youth working in this industry, that is of contracting occupational diseases like leukemia by the age of just 25.

"Who Pays the Price" paints a vivid picture of the unseen consequences of our tech-driven world. It's like pulling back the curtain to reveal the dusty truth: our old gadgets don't just disappear when we're done with them. They end up in massive heaps of e-waste, poisoning our planet and harming communities along the way. But don't lose hope just yet!

As viewers grapple with the stark realities depicted in the documentary, they are also presented with a viable alternative: embracing renewed electronics. These refurbished devices offer a lifeline, not only to consumers seeking affordable options but also to the environment. By extending the lifespan of electronics through refurbishment and recycling, we can drastically reduce the demand for new products and mitigate the harmful impact of e-waste on our planet.

As depicted in the movie, by opting for renewed devices, consumers not only contribute to the reduction of e-waste but also support ethical and sustainable practices within the electronics industry. It's a small yet significant step towards a future where technology coexists harmoniously with the natural world, benefiting both present and future generations.
