"Waste is not waste until we waste it"
As it's #RecycleWeek we wanted to share some shocking facts about electronic waste. Around 90% of our devices can be recycled, so when it has reached the end of its life (or just its life with you), recycle it ethically and responsibly with Green Machine. We wipe all of your data to military standards before donating your repaired device to a person in need. #ReuseReduceRecycle #TechForGood
