ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGE THE EFFECTS OF TRANSNATIONAL MANUFACTURING AND SERVICES Relocation of polluting industries

What the syllabus says…. ‘Discuss the reasons for and consequences of the relocation of polluting industries and waste disposal to countries with weaker environmental controls and safety regulations’.

The Problem There is a lot of harmful waste produced by various industries and the problem is where can it be stored, treated or recycled. This waste includes the by-products of the chemical industry, power industry, transport industry among others. A relatively new type of waste is the waste produced as a result of the technology revolution. Out-dated products containing micro chip technology are increasing as new, more sophisticated products are continuously replacing the previous year’s model. ICT waste as an example of the relocation of polluting industry E-waste is the commonly-used term for this type of waste. E-waste is growing very quickly.
