A new survey of adult consumers in the United States, Britain and Germany revealed a lack of awareness about cadmium, a highly toxic heavy metal used in some home electronics including televisions and computer monitors. Consumers surveyed seem to be unaware that governments are sanctioning the use of cadmium when suitable alternatives already exist and dominate the television and monitor market. Three-quarters of consumers surveyed in each country rejected cadmium-based products and say they would be willing to purchase safer electronics based on the fact that they did not contain cadmium.
The independent online survey was conducted between November 30 and December 2, 2016 among 1,003 U.S. adults, aged 18 and older; 1,005 U.K. adults, 18 and older; and 1,029 German adults, 18 and older.1
Key survey findings and takeaways:
Overall awareness of cadmium and its use in home electronics is low:
Takeaway: Much like lead and mercury campaigns, government needs to have an explanation as to why consumers are not better educated and aware (e.g. product hazard labeling) of cadmium.
Consumers are willing to select televisions and monitors based on the absence of cadmium in order to have safer products in their homes:
Germans are particularly focused on product safety issues:
Takeaway: Government has a duty to inform consumers about the risks of cadmium since they are not being given full information by manufacturers.
Proper waste recycling protocols are still unclear in many countries, multiplying Cadmium’s dangers:
Takeaway: The e-waste effects of products containing cadmium pose serious potential health hazards.
