Environmental Facts
Electronic waste is becoming a growing problem worldwide. Over 4.6 million tons of electronic waste is dumped in our local and international landfills every year, contributing to environmental and health concerns. As technology has evolved, we have grown and expanded our programs to include cell phones, digital cameras, iPods and MP3 players. By doing our part to keep these electronics out of landfills, we are creating a healthier and cleaner environment for future generations. When entering landfills, electronics can take up to 1,000 years to decompose and can contribute to the contamination and pollution of air, water and soil.
By collecting and recycling with Think Recycle, unwanted electronics will be refurbished, recycled or reused, creating a positive environmental impact. You will also be cleaning the air we breathe by planting trees. Through Think Recycle’s partnerships with American Forests and Tree Canada, they donate funds to have one tree planted for every 24 qualifying products Think Recycle collects. To date, ThinkRecycle has contributed to the planting of over 50,000 trees!
