<strong>recycling companies give a monetary reward or exchange them for seeds or water<\/strong> cans, which in turn are destined for the people who need them.<\/p>\n<p>There are also foundations that

such as coltan, are collected so that they do not pollute the environment.<\/p>\n<p>In the case of reuse, <strong>various models of mobile phones are collected and repaired<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>These
