A non-profit that has been a big advocate for recycling electronics in Vancouver is Free Geek Vancouver. What this progressive non-profit does is they “reduce the environmental impact of waste electronics by reusing and recycling donated technology.” In other words, Vancouverites donate computers that they are not using to Free Geek, and it is fixed not by professionals, but by the community and citizens. This weekend I will have the privilege to talk to them about their awesome non-profit, their goals, and their vision.
