There the rubbish is broken down by hand, poisoning workers and polluting the environment. "Smoke from the computers is too strong to breathe", complains one disposal worker. "I feel dizzy and can't see any more". Many employees at the electronic disposal plant suffer from respiratory illness or skin diseases. They work for ten hours a day, with no protection from the hazardous chemicals."</p> </div> <a href="/blog/63559-electronic-trash-village-china">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/61486-crystal-hightower-is-somekinda-pissed 2008-12-01T06:44:47Z bubba cromer <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/aHpkGufhu9s&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/aHpkGufhu9s&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/61486-crystal-hightower-is-somekinda-pissed"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/76156" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>While all but the final few seconds and some great voice-over were all that made it into the final cut, Macy Marie Covington is one of the most beautiful and talented Chicas I have ever known!

But, why bother to recycle? The benefits are far from indisputable. According to advocates of the new green orthodoxy, recycling is essential if we are to reduce pollution and alleviate global warming, but given its limited impact on CO2 emissions, it often seems as if the imperative to recycle has more to do with conspicuous ‘good citizenship’ than efficient waste management. Perhaps recycling is not only an inconvenient, but an unnecessary part of our daily routines.</p> <p>Some have hailed the recycling industry of Mumbai as an economic model that we should all take notice of. Many inhabitants of the Indian city spend their time sorting dumped rubbish for recycling. But, how does this resource efficiency match up to our standards of human efficiency? Might a certain amount of wasted material be a price worth paying for the freedom to spend time on other things?- Institute of Ideas</p> <p>Thomas Deichmann is founder and since 1992 Editor in Chief of the bi-monthly German magazine Novo, published in Frankfurt. Since 1993 he has worked as a freelance journalist and researcher for numerous quality papers across Europe.</p> <p>During the 90s, Deichmann'’s journalism covered international relations and the civil war in the former Yugoslavia. Since 1999 he has focused his research and writing on science topics, and modern biotechnology in particular. His investigative journalism and his ‘enlightenment’ approach repeatedly cause international and national wide debates. He has appeared on radio and TV repeatedly. </p> <p>He studied Civil Engineering at Darmstadt University and was awarded his diploma in 1989, spending some years working at Darmstadt University and as a freelance engineer.</p> </div> <a href="/blog/19736-is-recycling-a-waste-of-time">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/16654-kid-rock-redneck-fight 2008-10-23T03:32:01Z youngturks <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/x9E9pgf3290&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/x9E9pgf3290&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/16654-kid-rock-redneck-fight"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/16383" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>Kid Rock gets in a fight at the waffle house.
