I disagree. People/nations should clean up their own mess, without polluting the environment (of others) even further by shipping things back and forth.

My advice: keep your e-waste around as an investment. Once the mines have been depleted its worth will probably go up... On a more serious note: stop buying needless crap. Minimalism ftw.

Preferably yes, but since the waste is already there, it's a good place for a pilot program which, if it turned out to be profitable, would no doubt be copied by other nations to save on shipping costs.

I support this idea strongly.
