E-Waste Animated Video Wins Film Festival Award
At this year’s Media that Matters Film Festival, the winning video in the environment category was an animated film illustrating the impact of electronic waste on both humans and the environment.
The video, entitled E-Waste, was one of 12 films honored in the Eighth Annual Media that Matters Festival. Screenings of this year’s festival will be held in various locations throughout the summer, including Washington D.C. on July 23.
E-Waste was directed and produced by representatives of GOOD Magazine. It points out some of the hazardous materials in electronics (such as mercury) and some of the disposal options if it is shipped overseas for recycling.
