"Verbraucher*innen und Hersteller*innen haben Verantwortung" – Weiterhin illegale Exporte von Elektroschrott nach Ghana
ID 75721
rohmaterial (Hauptteil)
Mike Anane ist Umweltjournalist in der ghanaischen Hauptstadt Accra. Er beobachtet seit Jahren die ankommenden Containerladungen mit Elektroaltgeräten. Diese Dinge, die wir in der "1. Welt" wegwerfen und die dann auf einer der weltweit größten Müllkippen in Agbogbloshie (Ghana) landen, sind zum Großteil als "mildtätige Spenden" deklariert, in Wahrheit aber nur Schrott. Dort werden sie unter höchst gesundheitsschädlichen Bedingungen von Kindern und Jugendlichen "weiterverarbeitet": Beispielsweise werden Plasikumhüllungen von Kabeln abgebrannt, um an das wertvolle Kupfer heranzukommen. Die Rohstoffe werden dann vor allem nach China weiterverkauft, wo sie wiederum in die Produktion gehen.
Mike Anane schildert die aktuellen Umstände in Ghana.
