With a pledge to build a greener ecosystem and in observance of the International E-waste Day, ASUS India, Taiwanese tech giant, today announced a new initiative, #DiscardResponsibly, to evoke a sense of accountability amongst citizens. The new initiative is a step taken towards building a sustainable environment by creating awareness around the impact of careless dumping of electronic waste on the environment and at the same time, enabling citizens to dispose off e-waste sensibly.
There is also a digital consumer engagement activity planned wherein two winners stand a chance to win exciting ASUS goodies. The campaign will go live on International E-waste Day, 14th October, and will run till 31st October.
With the rapid pace of innovation and easy accessibility, the adoption of new technologies has increased over the years, as we tend to frequently replace our old gadgets and electronics with the latest ones. Seldom do we pay attention to the end of our products’ lifecycle and often throw them away casually.
ASUS’ #DiscardResponsibly is an endeavor to not only educate and spread awareness but also help consumers to responsibly dispose of their e-waste, by offering free of cost home pick-up for the discarded gadgets across India during the campaign period. ASUS has released a Toll-Free Number and a microsite to efficiently activate the e-waste management drive. All the consumers need to do is call on Toll-Free Number 1800 2090 365 or visit https://asus.in/
