Welcome to Community Recycling Campaign

Recycling makes a positive contribution to the global conservation of energy and recycling programs are growing across the globe. Recycling is important for social, economic, and environmental reasons. Currently, there is only 13.6% computers have been recycled each year in USA and the remaining e-Waste is dressing up in landfills. Though many recycling programs are available in cities, but there is always a gap in public awareness on how to best use the recycling programs. One way to close this gap is to continue raise awareness of recycling in the public.
Our " Community Recycling Campaign " project is dedicated to raise recycling awareness in communities and to refurbish used computers for charities.

13. E-Waste: Dark Side of Digital Age >> These days, it's often cheaper and more convenient to buy a new PC than to upgrade an old one. But what happens to those old computers once they've been abandoned for newer models? The refuse from discarded electronics products, also known as e-waste, often ends up in landfills or incinerators instead of being recycled. And that means toxic substances like lead, cadmium and mercury that are commonly used in these products can contaminate the land, water and air.
