Helping to preserve the environment for the generations of the future is an important responsibility. A growing concerned expressed in our sustainability consulting is the issue of E-waste. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, E-waste is now the fastest growing part of the municipal waste stream.
Options for responsible disposal of E-waste are on the rise and our eco friendly consulting has a new favorite: Recycling for Charities.
Recycling for Charities allows individuals an opportunity to recycle cellular phones, PDA’s, Palm Pilots, digital cameras, and iPods for value that is then donated to the charity of their choice. What sets Recycling for Charities apart is the fact that they are the only 501(c)(3) Non Profit Organization recycling cell phones. This sustainable business strategy not only helps protect the environment but the donations provide funds for the charitable cause of the donator's choice.
