Investigating World's Largest Electronic Waste Dump - Deadly Toxic E-Waste Of Agbogbloshie, Ghana 🇬🇭

Agbogbloshie is one of the world’s most well-known e-waste and scrap recycling areas, located in the heart of Accra, Ghana. This video explores how thousands of people make a living by dismantling old computers, phones, and other electronic devices, and it examines the difficult realities behind this informal industry. We look at common recycling practices such as burning cables to extract copper and breaking electronics apart with very basic tools. These methods often expose workers to smoke, toxic substances, and dangerous working conditions, usually without proper masks, gloves, or other protective equipment. The video also shows how these activities contribute to serious environmental pollution, especially in the nearby Korle Lagoon, and how this affects both the land and the health of people who live and work in the area. At the same time, it highlights that Agbogbloshie provides an important source of income and supports many families who depend on scrap and e-waste recycling for their livelihoods. By watching, you will learn where Agbogbloshie is, how e-waste recycling is done there, what risks workers and the environment face, and what efforts are being made by organizations and authorities to improve conditions and manage e-waste more responsibly. ________________________________________ Quit my corporate job in September 2021 to chase new destinations and document my life.
