THE GROWING E-WASTE PROBLEM
1/7/20XX Pitch deck 4
•E-waste statistics: Every year, the world generates millions of tons of
electronic waste (e-waste), with the volume increasing rapidly.
•Environmental impact: Improper disposal of e-waste leads to pollution, soil
and water contamination, and the release of hazardous substances into the
environment. This poses risks to human health and depletes valuable
resources.
•Need for sustainable solutions: It is crucial to address the e-waste problem
with sustainable solutions that promote recycling and responsible disposal.
UNDERSTANDING
COMPUTER
RECYCLING
1/7/20XX Pitch deck 5
•Definition: Computer recycling involves the process of recovering
valuable materials from old or obsolete computers. This includes
disassembling the devices, sorting components, and extracting valuable
resources.
•Benefits of recycling: Computer recycling offers several benefits. It
conserves valuable resources, reduces the amount of waste sent to
landfills, minimizes energy consumption, and decreases the need for raw
material extraction.
•Importance of proper disposal: Proper e-waste management is vital
to protect the environment, prevent the release of toxic substances, and
promote a circular economy by reusing valuable materials.
Valuable components: Computers contain various valuable
components. Precious metals like gold, silver, and platinum can be
found in circuit boards and connectors.
THE WEALTH IN YOUR
TRASH
1/7/20XX Pitch deck 6
Economic value: Recycling these materials from discarded
computers can yield significant economic benefits. Many companies
have successfully extracted wealth from e-waste by recovering
valuable metals and reselling them to manufacturers.
Job creation: The computer recycling industry provides opportunities
for job creation, especially in the field of e-waste collection, sorting,
refurbishment, and recycling.
1/7/20XX Pitch deck 7
GETTING INVOLVED:
OPPORTUNITIES AND
TIPS
•Donation and refurbishment: Consider donating your old
computers to organizations that refurbish them for reuse.
This extends their lifespan and reduces the need for new
devices.
•Responsible recycling: Choose certified e-waste recyclers
who adhere to proper recycling practices and environmental
regulations. They ensure that the materials are safely
processed, and any hazardous substances are handled
appropriately.
1/7/20XX Pitch deck 8
GETTING INVOLVED:
OPPORTUNITIES AND
TIPS
•Promote awareness: Spread the word about the
importance of computer recycling and its benefits to your
friends, family, and community. Encourage others to
participate in e-waste collection drives and support local
recycling initiatives.
