    style. Every month new models of cellphones,
    laptops and other electronic devices flood the
    news and attract consumers. People become so
    engrossed in the latest technology that theyre
    prepared to simply throw away what they currently
    have. But instead of throwing away new gadgets
    when replacements arrive, why not put them
    into electronic recycling?

Electronic recycling prevents toxic
substances from spreading widely. 
Our gadgets phones and laptops alike are
composed of substances that are not good for our
health. Improper computer and cell phone disposal
causes the substances in these gadgets to creep
and spread through the ground. Moreover, these
gadgets might be included in garbage that is to
be incinerated. If they fall to this category,
the air will be filled with toxic substances that
are not good for human health.

Gadgets can be used by others via
electronic recycling. 
  • Electronic waste disposal, if done properly, can
    put what you no longer want to use to a different
    use. Instead of throwing away old phones and
    gadgets, donate old computers to goodwill. Other
    people who need laptops and cell phones, but
    cannot afford to buy one, can make a great use
    for your pre-loved item.. 
  • Cell phone and laptop recycling can turn you into
    a helper in your community. The things that you
    no longer want, but which are still functioning,
    will be used by others who are in need.

Electronic recycling helps find parts that can be
put to use. 
  • Your old phones, computers and other electronic
    devices are filled with parts that cannot easily
    be bought in shopping malls or even electronic
    stores. Recycling old phones, laptops and other
    gadgets means that the components found in these
    devices can be reclaimed from them and used by
    others. You might even be paid for your old
    gadgets. After all, your gadgets components
    might be rare, but they are very important, no
    matter how small.

Show the manufacturers their responsibilities via
electronic recycling. 
  • You are responsible for the gadgets you buy.
    However, manufacturers are also responsible for
    what they produce. Therefore, in order to remind
    them that they should do their part in saving
    Mother Nature, show them that you recycle your
    old electronics. It will make them feel that you
    do your part, and they, too, should do their part
    by trying to find more environmentally friendly
    components for the electronic devices you love.

Electronic recycling prevents information theft. 
  • Your laptops, computers, cell phones and other
    devices store information about you. Sometimes
    you might have forgotten to delete files and
    information prior to disposing of your gadgets.
    Usually the information and data stored in
    gadgets is already embedded. Therefore it is
    always best to dispose  of your electronic
    materials properly, perhaps by bringing them to
    electronic devices and computer disposal sites in
    order to prevent the possibility of information
    theft. You should be very careful about your
    personal data, ALWAYS.
