Project 1 Phone
This recovery and recycling program ensures e-wastes like old mobile phones and broken chargers don't
end up in landfills. Since 2014, 22+ corporations and institutions joined the program, resulting in
500,000+ kg of e-wastes hauled. In 2017 to 2018, e-waste donations also increased by 30%.
Project 1 Phone bins are available in The Globe Tower and select Globe stores to encourage people
drop-off their e-wastes.
