Every week this summer we will be linking to some activities around waste and recycling, created exclusively for us here at the Zone Recycle Devon website. This one is great for a rainy day activity!
This week our activity involves looking for buried treasure at home. Did you know your electrical equipment contains gold and silver? Hunt out old and broken items and see if they can be mended or pass them on to someone else.
There are an estimated 40 million devices hiding in drawers in our homes – how many can you find? They contain vital elements that should be recycled, as they will run out if we keep mining them.
