Hi, we are two teens in Ontario who are collecting electronics to donate to the Electronics Recycling Association so that they can wipe clean, refurbish and donate to Canadians in need. We blog about my journey here: earthlyalex.wordpress.com
I will be contacting local politicians in Canada to try to get them involved in the electronics reuse & recycling program that I am involved on. Will you respond to my survey to help me build a case?

My brother, Sam, and I make a great team. We have almost doubled the number of electronic waste that I collected on my own last year. Only 3 more to go!

Also, we are very close to surpassing the milestone of 350 items collected since the very beginning! We have until August 31st. ♻️💻🍁

Grateful to Mayor West for inviting my brother Sam and me to his 2nd Sustainability Series event this past week. It was a pleasure to attend and share our passion for responsible electronics recycling. Here's Sam with Mayor West, showcasing our homemade sales aid.

"The regulation in particular introduces a mandatory target for recycled plastics and opens the possibility to set future targets for recycled steel, aluminium, and critical raw materials," the council said.

Here are the results for a few more of the globalization survey questions. I know it's hard to see some of the data in the countries of the participants. I am still new with this app so I haven't figured out how to expand that yet but I think you get the idea.

Thank you everybody who responded to my survey. I have to finish my report today but here is the wordcloud that I was able to make from all your responses about what the word "globalization" means to you.

Thank you, Councillor Scott Thompson, for inviting Sam and I (Alex) to collect used electronics for recycling at your free public skating event yesterday. It was a lot of fun. We met a lot of people who are keen to keep electronics out of our landfill. earthlyalex.wordpress.com/2025/04/28/a...

I want to make customized Tshirts for my boys who are collecting old electronics to have them refurbished and donated to Canadians in need, with their Earthly Bros logo. Any suggestions of a Canadian shop that does this for a reasonable price, no minimum order? @earthlybros.bsky.social

It's #GlobalRecyclingDay! Recycling keeps valuable materials in use so we don't have to extract more from our precious environment. While it's important to practice the higher tiers of this list first, it's still important to remember to recycle what you can. 💡

I (Alex) had an X account that I never used because nobody there was interested in talking to a teen about recycling electronics. I deleted it today. My brother, Sam, and I are happy to make Bluesky our new online home. 🦋🍁♻️

Let's talk recycling and reusing old electronics!
