day-to-day activities has brought about technological intensification,
overlooking the pollution caused by electronic peripherals and machinery waste;
these species of equipment are outcome of scientific and technological
achievement by man aiming to attain greater height in world civilization. </h1>

The
overall goal is to simplify and enhance human existence by adding quality value
to our day after day life, it suffers no contention that with these equipment
and facilities, the world has been reduced to a small village thus making it
possible for people in all parts of the globe to communicate and transact their
various businesses in real time.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

 In truth, there are profoundly
transformed by world view and link all who can afford them to the global super
highway along with conspicuous partner consumption of the best the world has to
offer. As civilization continues in it unstoppable movement, it must leave it
by-product in it trail.</h1>
<h1>

<h1>
 As much as we have these electronic, electrical and
mechanical equipment with us to enhance our daily living, we are also compel
to take great care in a way we deploy them to serve our purposes; this is
because some of the equipment carry with them some amount of dangerous
chemicals such as: curium, lead, carbon amongst others, which requires limited
exposure of human body to them owing to the substances they emit. For instance,
cell phone which is a must have item in the hands of a large segment of the
world’s population, emanate some amount of radio-active wave which ordinarily
should not do harm to human health because it’s below the health threatening
level; for safety sake, no cell phone user should go to sleep with the phone on
his/her body or under the pillow while sleeping. </h1>
<h1>
Moreover, even though the cell phone <a href="file:///C:/Users/francis/Documents/Also%20known%20as.docx">A.K.A</a>
handset, it is advisable to reduce the amount of time we held it closer to our
body to avoid a long term effects on our health. Traveler’s issues are how we
dispose of used electronic gadgets to avoid serious health and pollution
hazards they post to our environment. This is because in proper handling and
disposal of tired and worn-out or used electronic waste posed dangers not to
the echo system alone but more so to human health. According to experts, the menace
of toxic waste dump poses a great challenge to us because it’s a silent killer.</h1>

            Waste dumps of used
electronic products such as batteries, computers, handsets, tires, generators,
television sets, refrigerators amongst others can stock up huge radio-active
waves which beneath the skin surface and blood vessels leading to various
health challenges like: high blood pressure, cancer and cardio-vascular
diseases.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Humans shouldn’t forget in a hurry the dumping of three thousand five
hundred(3500) tones of toxic waste by the Italian cargo ship @ <span style="background-color: #ffe599;">Koko Village in
Delta State in 1988 </span>and it aftermath on the resident of the village. What this
potent is that, for both manufacturers of industrial and domestic goods as well
as the consumers of the product the challenge of proper waste disposal is ever
present, that is why policy makers at all level of government should have a
deliberate electronic waste disposal policy in place to ensure that electronic
waste are not mingled with everyday biodegradable waste.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
