Great Job E-Waste Team!
Hannah’s team organized this E-Waste Drive to reduce the amount of electronics entering our landfills. Not only will this reduce the amount of toxins in the environment, these items can also be recycled!
“Electronic Waste Drive events are events that allow people to bring their old, broken electronics that they don’t use anymore to an e-waste team. Sometimes E-Waste trucks will come to YOU! For example, me, my team and Mrs. Flores’ e-waste event was held at our school! E-waste drives and are convenient and awesome because it helps our Earth in ways some of us didn’t even know! Electronic waste that isn’t taken care of can damage human health and expand Earth’s pollution. That is why E-waste drives are so important.” ~Hannah
We collected 2,597 pounds of E Waste!

Facts to think about:
The amount of humans and animals that e-waste effects insane!
Lead, chromium, nickel, copper, are all materials in electronics that damage Earth.
E-waste is not biodegradable and accumulates in the environment, soil, air, water, and living things.
