Reuse or Recycle Your Old Computer

I have volunteered to give a Slug talk on:

"Reuse or Recycle Your Old Computer"

Computers and mobile devices become obsolete much quicker than other 
consumer products, such as refrigerators and cars. Electronic equipment 
can contain toxic and valuable materials which should not be simply put 
into landfill. Before you buy a new computer, tablet or phone, look at 
the options of what to do with the old one. Tom Worthington is author of 
the free ebook "ICT Sustainability: Assessment and Strategies for a Low 
Carbon Future": http://www.tomw.net.au/ict_sustainability/introduction.shtml

Tom teaches an on-line course in ICT sustainability which starts at the 
Australian National University in mid-February:
