Market potentials and risks
India’s rapidly growing economy generates more than 600,000 tons of electronic waste every year, a number expected to reach 3 million tons by 2015. Being a power city of the state of Madhya Pradesh, Indore exerts a significant impact upon commerce, finance, and education, and has been described as the commercial capital of the state. Indore is a commercial center and hosts a market for many goods and services. Indore has contributed $14,000,000,000 to India’s GDP as of 2013. However, 80% of the e-waste generated in Madhya Pradesh is from Indore. Madhya Pradesh is ninth biggest e-waste producer in the country. The state generates around 15000 tonnes to 25000 tonnes of e-waste per annum which is expected to go up significantly in the coming years.
Computers, information and communication technologies equipment, TVs, refrigerators and washing machines drive the growth of e-waste recycling industry in India.

The recycling chain for e-waste recycling through Attero consists of four stages:
• First Stage - Manual segregation of components, where different parts of E-waste are separated.
• Second Stage - The mechanical separation process is applied. In this process, ferrous, aluminum, plastic and nonferrous material are initially separated.
• Third Stage - The plastics are then recycled by Attero Group’s innovative plastics recycling process which further processes the plastic.

    In "thinking outside the idiot box", Dana Stevens responds to Steven Johnson's New York Times article in which Johnson believes that watching television makes you smarter. Indeed, Steven Johnson claimed that television shows have become more and more complex over the years in order to follow the viewers need for an interesting plot instead of an easy, linear story. However, Dana Stevens is opposed to this viewpoint. Stevens is not against television, he does not think it makes you smarter nor that it is poisenous for the brain, he simply states that the viewer should watch television intelligently. That is to say that, viewers should know how much television they should watch and what to watch as well.

    Meyer compares poems to songs. He says that we have to listen several times a song before we hear it all and before we understand it. The title of a poem provides a sense of what the poem is about. It can tell you about the poem’s subject, tone, and genre. While reading poetry we need to pay attention to elements such as speaker, image, metaphor, symbol, rhyme, and rhythm. Also, Meyer defines doggerel as a “derogatory term used to describe poetry whose subject is trite and whose rhythm and sounds are monotonously heavy-handed”. It is characteristic of children’s game rhymes. In addition, by characterizing poetry as “undefinable” and “unmistakable”, Robinson says that it can have different purposes, subjects, emotions, styles, and forms.

In fact, Johnson argues that much more people enjoy shows that involve multi threading, or multiple plots that are all connected.

    Electronic waste, or any waste for that matter is an inevitable part of an economic system where the destruction of an ecosystem is the primarily source of resources that are used to create the product. The waste that occurs from this process has to be disposed of in some way and more often than not, it is disposed of carelessly with out consideration to the affect it would have on the environment or the very people that create and let capitalism live on, “The political economy approach also defers progress on environmental issues to a pint after economic ones are solved” (Robbins et al. 2010, 114).

    Research from the University of California San Diego Scripps Institution of Oceanography said that species in the ocean consume a projected 12,000 to 24,000 tons of plastic every year in the Pacific Ocean (Nall, 2014). Pollution of recyclable materials in the oceans is one of the leading causes of why some marine species are nearing extinction. Many authors of articles and books analyzing this topic tend to agree that pollution of our oceans is a problem. The future of this problem is where their ideas tend to differ. The following four literature reviews attempt to demonstrate and support my belief that pollution is getting worse in the ocean and more marine life ecosystems are being affected, but there are things that we as humans can do to change this. Imagine a world where we didn’t have to constantly worry about the vicious cycle of humans affecting animals and then animals in turn affecting us through consumption.
