21st November

On the 21st of November, KSU will be organising ‘Electronics Disposal Day’. Electronics disposed of incorrectly will seriously damage the environment. Harmful substances such as heavy metals will be released which will contaminate the soil, underground or surface waters. Heavy metals in electronics also have harmful effects on human health. Through the recycling of metal substances contained in such electronics, significant saving in material and energy consumption can be achieved. On the day, KSU will be promoting such an initiative by raising more awareness on social media and by making available installations on the premises of the University of Malta for students to dispose of any electronics.
