PRESENTATION OUTLINE

Recycled Electronic Art

From e-waste to e-masterpiece

"one man's trash is another man's Treasure."

Waste not, want not...

We throw away more than 50 million tons of electrical waste
every year.

Yikes!

That's enough to fill 4 MILLION double decker buses.

Only 12.5% of e-waste is currently recycled.

The rest winds up in Landfills.

E-waste represents 2% of America's trash in landfills, but it equals 70% of overall toxic waste.

Cell phones and other electronic items contain high amounts of precious metals like gold or silver. Every year, Americans dump phones containing over $60 million in gold and silver.

Will landfills become Gold mines some day?

A large number of what is labeled as "e-waste" is actually not waste at all, but rather whole electronic equipment or parts that are readily marketable for reuse or can be recycled for materials recovery.
