I have just returned from a lengthy construction trip in Managua. I can assure you that even tho the technology and information may be available to those "third world" (not the correct term its "the developing countries") and the processes may be inexpensive they would take that tv and burn it untill the plastic was melted off the steel and the lead melted off the boards by a fire in their living room with no consideration of their own health or others. When you have nothing but a match and a broken TV and 3 kids to feed you are going to burn the plastic to heat your house
