Why recycle electronics?

Recycling electronics is essential for protecting the environment, conserving resources, and reducing waste. Here's why:
 

  1. Prevent Environmental Contamination
    Electronic devices contain toxic substances and heavy metals such as chromium, cadmium, mercury, and lead. When improperly disposed of, these materials can leach into soil, contaminate waterways, and pollute the air. According to the EPA, approximately 60 million tons of e-waste are generated globally each year. Recycling these items keeps them out of landfills, preserving our environment and protecting public health.

  2. Recover Valuable Materials
    Electronics are made from precious metals like gold, silver, and platinum, as well as copper, aluminum, plastic, and glass. Through recycling, these materials can be reclaimed and repurposed. In fact, most electronic devices are nearly 100% recyclable.

  3. Conserve Natural Resources
    By reclaiming materials through recycling, we reduce the demand for mining and harvesting new raw materials. According to the EPA, one metric ton of circuit boards contains 800 times more gold than one metric ton of mined ore, underscoring the efficiency of recycling.

  4. Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions
    Recycling decreases the need for processing new materials, which reduces greenhouse gas emissions. Using recycled components instead of “virgin materials” helps lower the environmental impact of manufacturing.
