E-waste is tricky to recycle because there are so many different types that all contain a different mix of materials. What many folks don’t know is that a lot of that e-waste contains toxic chemicals, things like lead and mercury, which if they aren’t handled properly can contaminate the environment and cause serious health issues.

It’s your old electronics. Around 6.92 million tons in 2019 alone and a lot of that e-waste contains toxic chemicals, such as lead and mercury, and brominated flame retardants. If those are not handled properly, they can contaminate the environment and cause serious health issues.

E-waste is tricky to recycle because there are so many different types that all contain a different mix of materials, some of which is toxic. At a recycling facility, it’s often sorted, and data is deleted from devices. Some devices or components can be refurbished or reused, while others will be processed. This can mean that parts like metals and plastics can be separated out, and then sold to smelters to go back into manufacturing. But, sometimes recyclers end up shipping old electronics overseas to developing countries– where they do not have strict environmental and safety standards. This exposes workers and the environment to those toxic substances, which has created massive environmental and health problems. The World Health Organization estimates that 18 million children work at these dangerous e-waste dump sites around the globe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What should you do with your old electronics? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dropping your electronics off at an e-stewards certified recycler is one of the best ways to ensure your e-waste won’t go overseas and will be handled responsibly. E-steward-certified recyclers have pledged to not ship their stuff overseas, and handle the waste in an environmentally sound way. They have surprise inspections to make sure they are doing so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What is a circular economy? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A circular economy is an antithesis of designing for the dump.

E-waste is tricky to recycle because there are so many different types that all contain a different mix of materials.

E-waste is tricky to recycle because there are so many different types that all contain a different mix of materials, some of which is toxic. At a recycling facility, it’s often sorted, and data is deleted from devices. Some devices or components can be refurbished or reused, while others will be processed. This can mean that parts like metals and plastics can be separated out, and then sold to smelters to go back into manufacturing. But, sometimes recyclers end up shipping old electronics overseas to developing countries– where they do not have strict environmental and safety standards. This exposes workers and the environment to those toxic substances, which has created massive environmental and health problems. The World Health Organization estimates that 18 million children work at these dangerous e-waste dump sites around the globe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What should you do with your old electronics? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dropping your electronics off at an e-stewards certified recycler is one of the best ways to ensure your e-waste won’t go overseas and will be handled responsibly.

And two of those times were just in the last 20 years. This past electoral season, there has been a lot of chatter about the value of the Electoral College with critics asking: is it time to get rid of the this institution?\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>TEACHERS: Guide your students to practice civil discourse about current topics and get practice writing CER (claim, evidence, reasoning) responses. \u003ca href=\"https://ca.pbslearningmedia.org/resource/is-the-electoral-college-killing-democracy-video/above-the-noise/\">Explore lesson supports.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What is the Electoral College?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nThe Electoral College is the process we use to vote for our president here in America. When you go and cast your vote, you’re not really voting for the president, you’re actually voting for electors, who then go and vote for the president. There are a total of 538 electors. Each state (and the District of Columbia) gets at least three, and then the rest are based on the state’s population size, which is determined every 10 years by the U.S. census. In most states, it’s winner takes all. This means that the party that wins the state’s popular vote sends all of their electors to cast votes to elect the president. But there are two states, Nebraska and Maine, that divide up their electoral votes based on who won the popular vote in each congressional district.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Why does the U.S. have an Electoral College?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nBack in 1787, the founding fathers met in Philadelphia at the constitutional convention to figure out the major laws for how the U.S. government was going to run. Out of that came the U.S. Constitution. One of the most hotly contested topics was how we elect our president. On the one hand you had the Federalists, who thought Congress should elect the president, and on the other you had those who thought the president should be elected by popular vote. But both were a little problematic. If Congress elected the president then Congress would have way too much power and be vulnerable to corruption. But if it was left up to purely the popular vote, there were fears about what would happen, considering there were a lot of people who couldn’t read or write and were uneducated. Their big compromise? The Electoral College.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Arguments for getting rid of the Electoral College\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nMany critics argue that the electoral college is outdated and doesn’t accurately represent the voice of the people. It’s the reason why people say votes in more populated states count less. People also argue that the Electoral College gives way too much power to people who live in swing states, and that the Electoral College makes it harder for third party candidates to win a presidential election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Arguments for keeping the Electoral College\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nSupporters of this institution say that it is a fundamental part of America’s checks and balances on government power. They often say that the Electoral College is key to federalist philosophy — which divides power between the federal and state governments and helps avoid an overly strong central government.

And two of those times were just in the last 20 years. This past electoral season, there has been a lot of chatter about the value of the Electoral College with critics asking: is it time to get rid of the this institution?\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>TEACHERS: Guide your students to practice civil discourse about current topics and get practice writing CER (claim, evidence, reasoning) responses. \u003ca href=\"https://ca.pbslearningmedia.org/resource/is-the-electoral-college-killing-democracy-video/above-the-noise/\">Explore lesson supports.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What is the Electoral College?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nThe Electoral College is the process we use to vote for our president here in America. When you go and cast your vote, you’re not really voting for the president, you’re actually voting for electors, who then go and vote for the president. There are a total of 538 electors. Each state (and the District of Columbia) gets at least three, and then the rest are based on the state’s population size, which is determined every 10 years by the U.S. census. In most states, it’s winner takes all. This means that the party that wins the state’s popular vote sends all of their electors to cast votes to elect the president. But there are two states, Nebraska and Maine, that divide up their electoral votes based on who won the popular vote in each congressional district.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Why does the U.S. have an Electoral College?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nBack in 1787, the founding fathers met in Philadelphia at the constitutional convention to figure out the major laws for how the U.S. government was going to run. Out of that came the U.S. Constitution. One of the most hotly contested topics was how we elect our president. On the one hand you had the Federalists, who thought Congress should elect the president, and on the other you had those who thought the president should be elected by popular vote. But both were a little problematic. If Congress elected the president then Congress would have way too much power and be vulnerable to corruption. But if it was left up to purely the popular vote, there were fears about what would happen, considering there were a lot of people who couldn’t read or write and were uneducated. Their big compromise? The Electoral College.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Arguments for getting rid of the Electoral College\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nMany critics argue that the electoral college is outdated and doesn’t accurately represent the voice of the people. It’s the reason why people say votes in more populated states count less. People also argue that the Electoral College gives way too much power to people who live in swing states, and that the Electoral College makes it harder for third party candidates to win a presidential election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Arguments for keeping the Electoral College\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nSupporters of this institution say that it is a fundamental part of America’s checks and balances on government power. They often say that the Electoral College is key to federalist philosophy — which divides power between the federal and state governments and helps avoid an overly strong central government. They also argue that this is the best way to ensure that politicians pay attention to the needs of people living in smaller, more rural states instead of only the most populated cities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SELECTED SOURCES:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nWhat is the electoral college?

Sideshows! Sideshows have become big in Oakland, where drivers will block major intersections to perform car stunts like donuts and figure eights, while large crowds gather to watch. But here’s the catch– they can be real dangerous and because of that they are totally illegal. And chances are in some way or another there’s a clash between youth and car culture and cops near you too. In Oakland, they are creating a huge divide in the community, where many supporters say sideshows are part of Oakland culture and are calling for legal safe venues.
