Mark Oluoch an electronic waste worker with Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Centre (WEEE Centre) sorts electronic waste at an e-waste collection center in Nakuru before it is later transported to Nairobi for recycling. Kenya generates about 11,000 metric tonnes of electronic waste every year, most of this waste has been found to contain harmful chemicals like lead, mercury, and phosphorus. There are calls to increase collection and recycling rates for both electronic and plastic waste to safeguard the environment and public health. (Photo by James Wakibia/SOPA Images/Sipa USA)
