    The document discusses the effects of various components used in electronics on human health and the environment. It notes that lead can cause air pollution and sickness, cadmium can affect the respiratory system and cause hypertension, and organotins can cause neural damage. Many of these components like phthalates, beryllium, chromium, and mercury are toxic even at low concentrations and can negatively impact workers and their families. The components are used in batteries, solders, pipes, circuit boards, plastics, and other parts of electronic devices.
