WEEE Reycling
There are millions of tons of garbage produced in the United Kingdom and other countries worldwide. This leads to pollution and causes harm to ecology as well, especially electronic rubbish. Most individuals typically dump their old computer in the trash bin, from where the garbage company's truck picks it up and dumps it in a landfill. The electronic components of the computer, including its motherboard contain toxic and heavy metals, which slowly leech into the soil, poisoning it therefore. The toxic poison spreads through the soil and plants in the vicinity picks up the toxic compounds when their roots suck water from the soil. This results in contamination of vegetables and fruits growing in that plant. The poison spreads to your body when you eat vegetables and fruits sourced from such plants. If this is not enough, the toxic chemical compounds pollute nearby water bodies, affecting fishes. The toxic chemicals affect animals, chewing polluted grass. You can save the ecology of the plant by trying to decrease this mass scale pollution by recycling. You can call the company from which you purchased the computer and request them to pick up your old computer. They will take the computer from your home or office, recycle the different parts, and then sell them to manufacturers of computer parts. If the vendor of your computer does not have such a policy, you can contact weee recycling.
Not just computers
It is possible to reprocess and recycle many materials, even though they might appear as unnecessary piece of garbage, by sending them to recycling centres. When you opt for recycling, you save natural resources such as minerals, timber, heavy metals, and water and save the soil from pollution by garbage dumps. This process also helps to reduce contamination of air and water. When you send your old and unnecessary wooden furniture to a recycling centre, they take it apart, keep aside the parts that can be used, and convert the remaining parts into powder with the help of special machines. This powder is then mixed with special adhesive to create bond boards, which is used to manufacture new furniture.
What can be recycled?
