The Problem
I am trying to help eliminate some of the e-waste in my local landfill.
Why It's Important
This is important to me because our land fills are being over run by electrical materials that can be repaired and refurnished. Getting to these items before it reaches it final resting place than could greatly reduce the amount of electronical devices being thrown away.
The Plan Of Action
My plan of action is to repair and refurbish video game systems as a way to prevent them from ending up in land fills.
How Can Others Get Involved?
Others can help by thinking of repairing problematic items instead of throwing it out.
