孟祥红（Meng, Xianghong）
In recent years, more and more global electronic waste exported to China, especially in southern coastal areas, China has become a major global e-waste recycling.
Chinese mainland bad environment pollution in the e-waste trade, of course, get a lot of profit, but also by the environment and workers＇ e-waste victims. E-waste needs to be disassembled in one place, then the recovery of precious metals smelting separately.
China＇s coastal areas have a lot of small workshops, poorly equipped harsh conditions lack of protection.
Chinese workers in the smelting process of recovery of precious metals, in addition to causing serious environmental pollution outside, because long-term exposure to hazardous substances, health is also greatly harm.
In fact, the CCP has already made laws requiring strict control of e-waste imports, protection of labor environment and labor health.
But because the rule of law in China is not a country, not only have a legal execution, the law is a piece of paper, the authorities do not pay attention to, over time, China has become the world＇s toxic e-waste disposal site in.
Protection of the environment is everyone ,, Chinese government has a responsibility to protect the environment.
