Save the Gold Coast environment and recycle your mobile phone!
Dispose your unused mobile phones, BlackBerrys, Palm Pilots, iPods or PDAs responsibly by donating them at Gold Coast City Council drop-off points throughout the city.
This will help reduce the leakage of environmentally hazardous materials and raise $5.00 for WaterAid Australia or the Animal Welfare League. (It also helps our cousins, the great apes).
National Water Week is a national schedule of programs and events that encourage the protection, rehabilitation and improvement of water environments such as streams, wetlands, waterways, beaches, and estuaries.
Every item listed below is recycled through the Australian Recycling Program, an Australian mobile phone recycling program that helps clean up the environment.
