But E-waste recycling and disposal operations found in some of these developing nations are extremely hazardous to humans. “Recycling” involves open burning of plastic waste, and exposure to these toxins wreaks havoc on the human body and can be fatal. Despite all this, the U.S. refuses to ban e-waste exportation. There are many ways you can help. Please visit http://www.goodmagazine.com/ for more information. From Wiredset Digital Agency.

GOOD Magazine asset, video. Natalie Jeremijenko has opened the environmental health clinic at NYU. People come in with their environmental health concerns and leave with a prescription for action. The environmental health clinic is also mobile, and it floats. She took it out on NYC’s East river for the first time to hold her office hours. Why sit on the water, to talk about the water? When you physically see it and smell it, you have more direct evidence of the issues concerning the environment. Please visit http://www.goodmagaznie.com/ for more information.

It’s about New York, about families, and about a community. To learn more, log onto http://www.goodmagazine.com/. From Wiredset Digital Agency.
GOOD Magazine asset, video. Phillip Carter is a 31-year-old who’s served two tours of active duty: from 1997 to 2001, and 2005 to 2006. This is a portrait of life after the war. He focuses now on the human element of questions like whether or not the U.S. should go to war, or whether the U.S. should stay in Iraq. Coming home was an awkward experience for Carter. He found that people went on about their daily lives, as though they didn’t know their country was involved in a war, and they probably didn’t care. But Carter says he would do it all over again. He got a lot more out of the army than the army got out of him. For more portraits, go to http://www.goodmagazine.com/ From Wiredset Digital Agency.
GOOD Magazine asset, video. The Highline is an elevated rail structure designed to carry freight trains thru NYC in the 1930s, and ran actively from 1934 until the 60s. It was eventually abandoned with the rise of highways. In 2001, the structure was slated to be torn down, until two neighborhood activists– Joshua David and Robert Hammond—created “Friends of the Highline.” Their mission was to save the structure and turn it into a park. They achieved success in 2003 when the city halted the structure’s demolition and passed a ruling to preserve the rail line. They held a contest to come up with the most creative idea for a park. In 2004, a winner was chosen, and the new park will open to the public in 2008. The group’s efforts brought the community together, and proved things that ought to be can be if you have the will to pursue them. For more, log onto http://www.goodmagazine.com/.

GOOD Magazine assets, video. In 2006, Al Jazeera launched an international, 24-hour English language news network, ten years after Al Jazeera Arabic began. It’s one of the most far-reaching, global news networks, after the BCC and CNN, and is the first international channel that doesn’t have its roots in the Western world. The U.S. government had loved Al Jazeera Arabic, but that quickly changed after the network began reporting on casualties from the American military campaign in Afghanistan and broadcasting Osama bin Laden’s releases. Al Jazeera English has an image problem to contend with, and no major American cable provider has picked up the channel. But the journalists at this new network see themselves as proving objective reports from, and for, a part of the world that has long been underserved by other news organizations.

GOOD Magazine asset, video. Detroit, MI is a city of contrast. Some of the richest areas in the country sit next to some of the poorest. Four artists gathered for what started out as an artistic endeavor, but turned into a social crusade. They set to paint abandoned, decrepit homes orange so the city can demolish them. They wanted to take dilapidated structures and make something beautiful and positive out of it, rather than have kids playing and hanging out in the rotting skeleton of homes.
