Why Recycle Electronic Waste?
-
- Electronic waste is the most rapidly growing segment of the municipal solid waste stream.
- Electronic waste contains many valuable, recoverable materials such as aluminum, copper, gold, silver, plastics, and ferrous metals. In order to conserve natural resources and the energy needed to produce new electronic equipment from virgin resources, electronic equipment can be refurbished, reused, and recycled instead of being landfilled.
- Electronic waste also contains toxic and hazardous materials including mercury, lead, cadmium, beryllium, chromium, and chemical flame retardants, which have the potential to leach into our soil and water. These chemicals have been building up from improper disposal of electronics since the late 1970’s. The effects of increased lead and other harmful chemicals causes long term health problems that can result in severe medical conditions and brain damage as well as death.
-
- Conserves natural resources. Recycling recovers valuable materials from old electronics that can be used to make new products. As a result, we save energy, reduce pollution, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and save resources by extracting fewer raw materials from the earth.
- Protects your surroundings. Safe recycling of outdated electronics promotes sound management of toxic chemicals such as lead and mercury. Our Florida waters are already polluted with toxic chemicals and organizations are working tirelessly to remove harmful trace elements. Help by properly recycling your electronics which contain countless products that can seep into the soil and create long term health problems.
-
- Create Jobs. Electronic recycling creates jobs for professional recyclers and refurbishers and creates new markets for the valuable components that are dismantled.
- Saves landfill space. E-waste is a growing waste stream. By recycling these items, landfill space is conserved.
-
- Helps others. Donating your used electronics benefits your community by passing on ready-to-use or refurbished equipment to those who need it. E-Cycle Pros donates to organizations such as B.I.K.E.R.S.C.A.P. that provide computers to underprivileged kids in the local area. By donating your obsolete or broken electronics, you are directly influencing the growth and quality of your community.
