flying high again. now here's a statistic that might shock you every year an estimated 7000000000 euros worth of brand new and used goods are destroyed in germany one of the biggest offenders its online retail giant amazon our next report explains why it's often more economical for a company to trash goods that don't make them. these photographs are a testimony to our consumer society the show brand new christmas lights electric fires and books still in their original packing. goods that will never reach the consumer because they're destined to be destroyed. journalists discovered that a waste disposal company removes containers full of new goods from the site every week and takes them to be incinerated. into heat and is a productive valuable resource is going to every one of these products which are often small products made in se asia and shipped around the world and it's a comb. these pictures come from this amazon site near homburg amazon packs and
