Recycling
Recycling is a great option that will help the environment. You can look online for a place near you where a TV can be recycled.
Electrical items that are recycled are taken away to a reprocessing plant where they are broken down into small pieces. After that, magnets are used to remove ferrous metals like steel. Non-ferrous metals are removed with electric currents.
Recycling electrical items prevent them from ending up in landfill sites, where hazardous substances could leak out and contaminate the water and soil.
