There was a meeting in Belize City about this issue of donations. The country gets a lot of items donated, which is very nice. BUT many of the items are used and are donated because they original user is upgrading. So big items and electronic items get here, may or may not be valuable or usable here and end up in our waste stream that is just beginning to get managed and is overwhelmed. Items like computers and large plastics are toxic and seep in to the ground water. I am not saying to reject donated items but to be smart and make sure that what is coming makes sense.
