Did you know that electronics contain hazardous substances such as mercury, lead and arsenic?

Did you know that they also contain gold, silver, copper and platinum?

If these gadgets aren't recycled properly, that means that the bad substances in them are taken to our landfills or shipped overseas to developing nations where they are taken apart in a way that harms the people.

And the good substances in the electronics are going to waste!

So think about it for your busness, community and home and find your nearest ewaste recycler and jump on the recycling train!
