Recycling creates jobs. It’s been estimated that recycling computers alone can create 296 new jobs each year for every 10,000 tons of computer waste that gets processed. The recycling industry is growing and creating hundreds of thousands of new jobs across the globe.

  • Smartphones
  • Laptops
  • DVD players
  • Xbox players
  • and other electronics
  1. Make a regular habit of recycling any used electronics you no longer want or need.
  2. Help educate other people about the importance of recycling e-waste. And that begins by educating yourself about e-waste facts.

Recycling e-Waste is a great way to save energy. Recycling uses far less energy than mining for virgin ore to make new metals. Recycling one million laptops saves the same amount of energy that it would take to power 3,657 homes each year.

There now are more mobile phones in existence than people on the planet. Based on the number of active SIM cards in use today, it’s been estimated there are more than 7.2 billion mobile devices being used, compared to fewer than 7.2 billion people on the planet. Mobile devices are growing faster than the Earth’s population.

Because electronic devices contain valuable raw materials like gold, copper, silver, and nickel, they can be extracted and resold to manufacturers creating new products. Those materials are lost when e-waste is sent to landfills. It’s been estimated that in 2016, the total value of the raw materials within e-waste amounted to $65 billion.
