Computer Recycling & Reuse
Computers are a main contributor to electronic waste (e-waste), which pose a major disposal issue because they are made up of various components that are toxic to the environment.
The Institute for Local Self-Reliance estimates that 75 percent of obsolete electronics are currently being stored, which will one day result in a massive disposal issue for the country and the world.
With continued innovations in technology, there is an increasing opportunity to recycle computers, limiting the number that end up in local landfills.
