As of writing, there are currently nearly 42 million tons of electronic waste in our environment, and according to The World Counts<\/a>, only 12.5 percent will be recycled.

One helpful strategy is to buy refurbished<\/a> when shopping for new technology.\u00a0<\/p>\n

You can’t stop yourself from needing a new computer, and you don’t need to put your life on hold because your old laptop conked out. But instead of picking up a brand-new device, you could grab a lightly used laptop<\/a> like this refurbished MacBook Air<\/a>, which is 74 percent off.\u00a0<\/p>\n

An environmentally friendly way to upgrade your technology\u00a0<\/h2>\n

Buying refurbished is an environmentally friendly<\/a> way to upgrade your devices that can save a device from an early visit to the landfill<\/a>. It\u00a0doesn’t hurt that you can usually get a significant discount. For example, this 2017 MacBook Air is an excellent general-use laptop for school, work, or fun and is in near-mint condition. One of the only signs that it isn’t brand-new is that it doesn’t come in the original box.\u00a0<\/p>\n
