Om Burning Matters

In Burning Matters, Peter C. Little examines the cultural, economic, and environmental health dimensions of electronic waste in Africa. Little draws on social science research to share the lived experiences of e-waste workers who burn bundles of electrical cables to extract copper, a practice that has raised concerns about toxic exposures to workers and urban environmental contamination. Little argues that interventions need to account for urban-rural migration and the sustainability of rural communities to reduce unnecessary toxic exposure
