In spite of a decade of recycling efforts, we are generating more waste than every. Why is that? An interactive panel of experts will debate the reasons why we are such a wasteful society. The audience will be challenged to think about ways they can make a difference. How are electronics currently managed? Where do the components ultimately end-up, and what are the environmental concerns about recycling these materials?
