I recently blogged about
greener electronics. According to today's My Paper, the amount of e-waste collected in Singapore has increased over the years, with collection of e-waste peaking during IT product sales, electronics fairs and the festive seasons. NEA had featured its E-waste Take Back Project during last week's Recycling Week (also organised by NEA).
According to their website, we could drop off our unwanted electrical and electronic items - such as cellular phones, computers, printers, household appliances - at West Mall, Junction 8 Shopping Centre, NorthPoint Shopping Mall and Changi Simei Community Club on 10 September 2010. It doesn't say whether we can still do this though, but I hope it will be an on-going programme!!
Well, if it isn't there are other things we can do!
I found this "62 Projects to Make with a Dead Computer (and other discarded electronics)" in the library and I knew I had to borrow it! There are so many things you can do. There's a sharpener from a mouse, earrings from keys, a lampshade, and even a table from an old scanner, but my hubby thinks that I'm no good with tools other than a sewing machine. We shall see!!
