Sometimes you have an old device, but it still works perfectly. You can donate old devices to certain schools or charities where they will be used for a good cause such as educating the next generation.
Save energy by powering off computing devices when they are not in use. Leaving your computers on throughout an entire night will not only result in an unnecessary expensive electrical bill, but also wastes energy and has negative implications on the environment!
You can save energy by configuring power management options on your devices. You might want to configure your device to "sleep" after a short period of inactivity. Some devices even allow you to minimize processing performance in order to reduce energy consumption.
If your business or school owns a large number of unwanted devices, which cannot be sold, then why not organize a recycling event for your entire neighborhood? Not only does this reduce the company's environmental impact, it also maintains a good reputation.
Consider reusing some components such as keyboards, monitors, or even working hard drives before disposing an entire device. This will save you the cost of buying new components for a new system, and it will reduce your environmental impact.
According to the EPA (epa.gov/recy…/electronics-donation-and-recycling): recycling one million laptops saves enough energy to power 3500 U.S. homes for a year. Your small contribution makes a very big difference!
Did you know that your computer contains valuable metals like gold, silver and platinum? It also contains some toxic substances such as lead, chromium, and beryllium which may be bad for the environment when disposed of improperly. So recycle or reuse parts of your device instead
Do you own any unused or broken computing devices such as laptops, cell phones, desktops, or televisions? Then stay tuned for more updates on how to minimize your impact on the environment when you want to get rid of these devices.
