Desperately poor people trying to make a living as best they know how. Dumping in Africa is not something new, this is good exposure as to where re-cycling goes, how it affects other nations.

Burning cable is to recover copper or metals that are then sold (toxic pollutions runs into water, air pollution, people, animals), old computer boards had some gold content that is recovered, certain old machinery will be repaired and sold.

Disgusted at how abuse is taking place! It is long overdue that people in first world take a good long hard look at the devastating effects their lifestyle imposes onto others, the poor nations have little say over what happens being ruled by greedy politicians.
