An open view on raw sources

People need to realize, that there is a direct link between the gadgets that make our lives more convenient and sophisticated--and the reality of the violence, turmoil, and destruction that plague our world.

It is time for our culture to start seeing more value in living beings, whether gorillas or humans, than in our disposable high-tech gadgets such as cell phones. It is time to steal back a more compassionate existence from the corporate plutocracy that creates destructive markets and from the media system that has manufactured our consent.

It is not just a question of giving up cell phones (though that would be a great start). We must question the appropriation of our planet in the form of a resource to be consumed, rather than as a home and community to be lived in.

This page is a collection of documents about known exploitations of raw materials employed in the production of consumer grade devices worldwide.
