WHY THIS MATTERS

E-waste thrown in the trash can release toxic metals and chemicals into our Chester County environment. Recycling:

  • Protects local streams and groundwater
  • Keeps hazardous materials out of landfills
  • Allows valuable materials to be reused
  • Teaches Scouts lifelong environmental responsibility
