Benefits From Recycling Electronics

There is a multitude of benefits to recycling your old electronics: It can help create green jobs, contribute to reusing valuable materials, and support the recycling and refurbishing industry. When done properly, electronics recycling reduces harm from electronic waste. For instance, fluorescent tubes and maps contain mercury, a toxic substance, which can be reused for other purposes. Electronics recycling also provides a supply for functional electronic products to be reused or broken down into parts such as aluminum, copper, and gold. Furthermore, goods made from recycled materials use less water and energy and therefore produce less pollution. So, donate your old electronics today!
