DID YOU KNOW?
The U.S. produces 6,918 kilotons of e-waste yearly, equal to 1,400 Statues of Liberty!
Of all this tech trash, only 15% gets recycled. Imagine the lost treasures: 35,000 pounds of copper and 80 pounds of gold from just 1 million recycled cell phones.
​
Ignoring e-waste isn't just environmentally costly; it's a financial loss too—about US$57 billion each year, almost matching the U.S. Department of Education's budget!

Think about it: What could we achieve in education with that $57 billion?

17% of U.S. students do not have access to computers at home and struggle with completing homework
50% of low-income families and 42% of families of color lack the necessary technology for online education. That's not just numbers—that's missed learning and lost opportunities. Digital divide is more than just a buzzword—it's a barrier that hampers students' academic performance and competitiveness in college or the workforce, as digital literacy becomes crucial.
