The Department of Media and Institute for Creative Enterprise (ICE) seminar series.
Professor Toby Miller
'Greening the Media'
26 March 2014
Edge Hill University
You may not look at your cell phone, TV, or computer the same way after rethinking the media from a green point of view. That perspective can reveal secrets lurking within electronic devices. Marshalling economic, environmental, and historical facts, Toby Miller will examine the environmental, safety, and health record of these technologies to show how making, consuming, and discarding such gadgets is rife with toxic ingredients, poisonous working conditions, and hazardous waste. But all is not lost: we can think creatively about ways to solve these problems as green workers, consumers, and citizens.
This is a free event. Registration is required.
