At Crescent Future Kids, we are currently running the recycling project where a standard CRT monitor will be converted into a regular Television set. This project not only prevents the country from being a 'Dumping ground' as we provide a solujtion to this ever growing problem of Electronic waste. Feel free to contact us for all your electronic waste. As much as we appreciate the fact that PCBs are not recycled in Africa, we having this solution really come in handy. This also means that the made television sets are affordable for everyone in the country and countryside. We belive in making a difference to our nation.
Obsolete Television Sets, dead radio's and mobile phones are all dumped together indiscriminately. In developed countries like Germany, in major cities, sorting wastes at source and recycling metals, plastics and electronic waste has resulted into a greener cleaner environment. Zambia however is gaining pace in its quest to curb the e-waste eyesore. Crescent Future Kids Zambia is running an e-waste recycling centre with capacity to handle 2000 tons of e-waste annually alongside a project of distributing donated computers to schools.
CFK Zambia runs an inventory and support programme to ensure that all donated computers are repossessed and recycled when they turn obsolete or reach end-of –life. “E-waste is one of the rapidly growing environmental problems in the world. At our E-waste recycling centre, We extend life of donated computers if possible, turn some to TVs to avoid poisonous components like mercury and lead going to landfills.
