加纳阿克拉的Agbogbloshie垃圾场是焚烧电子废物造成有害烟雾的热点,主要来自发达国家。 The Agbogbloshie dumpsite in Accra, Ghana, is a hotspot for hazardous smoke from burning electronic waste, mostly from developed countries. 那里的工人,包括Abdulla Yakubu在内,由于每天接触有毒烟雾,面临严重的健康风险。 Workers there, including Abdulla Yakubu, face severe health risks due to daily exposure to toxic fumes. 从全球来看,只有15%的电子废物被回收利用,导致贩运到较贫穷国家,在那里被不当处置,既危害环境,也危害当地健康。 Globally, only 15% of e-waste is recycled, leading to trafficking into poorer nations where it's improperly disposed of, harming both the environment and local health. 从2025年起,《巴塞尔公约》将要求出口商申报电子废物,并获得受援国的许可。 From 2025, the Basel Convention will require exporters to declare e-waste and get permission from recipient countries.
