This we feel is a state of mind, we live in a throwaway society so why recycle when you can buy new.

The trouble is people think that our current natural resources can indefinitely produce new electronic devices. If that is true then there is no reason why recycling should be done in the first place.

However, the opposite is true and we are slowly but surely using up natural deposits of metals, used for creating computers and other devices such as gold, silver, iron and copper.

We are also using too much energy in extracting these metals from their native minerals. That is why recycling is important for the production of new devices. It keeps energy and material costs low so newer electronics would also be cheaper.
