This was dangerous because e waste contains harmful3 that can leak into the environment, getting into crops, animals, water supplies—and people.Alex was really worried and decided to make it next project for WIN—the Westerly Innovations Network. Alex and six of his friends had4 this organization to help solve community problems two years before.But what could they do about this project with e-waste? The team spent several weeks gathering information about the harmful chemicals in e waste and their5 on humans. They learned how to dispose (处置) of e waste6 and how it could be recycled. Then, they sent out a survey and found only one in eight knew what e-waste was, let alone how to dispose of it.Alex and his friends went into7 . They advertised in the local newspaper and8 notices to students, asking residents to bring their9 electronics to the school parking lot. The drive lasted two days, and they10 over 9,500 kilograms of e waste.The next step was to set up a long-term e-waste drop-off center for the town. After some research, they'd learned that reusing is the best way to 11 electronic devices and it is seven times more12 than recycling. So, they began learning to refurbish(翻新) computers themselves and distributed them to students who didn't have their own. In this way, they could help students in the area and protect the environment at the same time.For a13 solution to e waste, the drop off center wasn't enough. Laws would have to be passed. In 2016, WIN helped14 for an e waste bill in their town, which required companies that manufactured or sold electronics to take back e waste. The bill clearly15 the dumping of e waste.Because of the work of WIN, more and more people, like Alex and his team, are getting the message about safe disposal of e-waste. As Alex says, "Today's technology should not become tomorrow's harmful garbage.
