El evento de reciclaje de la Sociedad de Contadores Públicos Certificados (CPA) recoge 17 000 libras de residuos electrónicos.
Members of the CPA Society had the chance to deliver their old equipment for recycling.
Durante la cuarta edición de su evento “Día del Reciclaje de Equipos Electrónicos”, la Sociedad de Contadores Públicos Certificados de Puerto Rico recolectó más de 17,000 libras de aparatos electrónicos en desuso que no terminarán en los contenedores de basura de la isla.
The event took place Jan. 26 in Hato Rey, when organization members paid to deliver e-waste that included monitors, television sets, printers and other items that cannot be placed with the regular garbage due to their high content of environmentally unfriendly toxic substances.
Over the past four years, the CPA Society has held an annual recycling event to collect electronic equipment, which organizers have said is “always busy and successful.” Reciclajes del Norte handles the task of recycling the equipment gathered.
