Unit THEME: Health and Environment

Jenny: Do you know that we have to be very careful when we dispose of our electronic waste?

Ben: What do you mean?

Jenny: Well, electronic waste that is not disposed of properly can be very harmful to our environment. Electronic equipment that is thrown away is also known as e-waste. It includes phones, computers and other electronic items which are not used any more.

Ben: Do people have a lot of e-waste?

Jenny: Yes. Do you know that many people upgrade their computers, devices and gadgets every three to five years? Old laptops, cameras, computers, mobile phones, batteries and bulbs which are thrown away create a large amount of useless waste. There are methods to deal with e-waste so that it is recycled or disposed of carefully.

Ben: Does this mean that we mustn't just throw these items into our bins with all our other rubbish?

Jenny: That’s right. If your community has a recycling centre or weekly recycling services, then you should use those services to dispose of your electronic items. If your community doesn't offer recycling services, then you can search online for an e-waste recycling provider and take your devices to them.

Ben: But that’s so much trouble!

Jenny: Sometimes there are people who come around collecting unwanted items. You can always ask them if they want some of your unwanted electronic equipment. We need to make some effort to save our environment, otherwise the generations to come will suffer the consequences. Pollution is a big problem!
