Today we went to a electronic recycling plant and it turned out to be really interesting actually. It's where old tvs, computers and other things with hazardous material go to get taken apart properly and have the parts reused. I found this tour to be extra interesting because this business is sort of like the one that my family is in back home. My dad opened an auto salvage over 30 years ago and they do the same thing but with cars. Insurance companies sell busted up cars to them, then they take all of the good parts out of them and resell them as used parts and the rest of the car is sold as scrap metal. So this tour kind of hit home for me because I have been around this type of industry my entire life.
