Student plans recycling improvements

According to environmental activist and founder of Earth Day Denis Hayes , “One recycled beer can saves enough electricity to run a television for three hours.” Junior Ginger Maneske follows Hayes’s mantra and plans to inspire students all over the Whittier College campus this spring to recycle their old electronics into her collection bins for e-waste gathering.

E-waste, also known as electronic waste or e-scrap, is made up of discardable electrical or electronic devices including computers, entertainment devices, mobile phones, television sets and refrigerators.
