It's not so much the shredding of computers which
I find
disgusting as how wasteful we are with technology. I'm
guessing that over half of the mass of our discards could
be reused, never mind recycled, if we were in the right state
of mind.
Get to know this site:
National Cristina Foundation

They are a brokerage matching up "Haves" with "Have Nots",
usually by nearest location, so no shipping is required.
I have outplaced now 29 computers destined for South Africa,
thanks to this organization. After establishing the relationship,
I even sent out systems lower than the minimum requirement,
by mutual agreement.
