Congratulations to the staff and students at Macquarie University for an outstanding effort collecting over 100 mobile devices for recycling on behalf of JGIA. Not only will diverting these devices from landfill reduce waste and the need for new coltan to be mined from endangered great ape habitats in the Democratic Republic of Congo, they will also help to fund our Africa programs which work to protect chimps, gorillas and the forests they call home. Keep up the great work!
