Verdant Solar X APU X TM Enviro Industries Sdn. Bhd.: Greener Future Through E-Waste Management

 We recently teamed up with Asia Pacific University of Technology and Innovation (APU) and our official recycling partner for this collaboration, TM Enviro Industries Sdn. Bhd. to launch a powerful initiative aimed at tackling the growing issue of e-waste. The campaign kicked off with an insightful talk on the environmental impact of electronic waste. This talk set the stage for an impactful project focused on raising awareness, educating students, and creating practical solutions for proper e-waste disposal.

E-waste, or electronic waste, includes a wide range of discarded gadgets, from phones to computers, that often contain harmful materials like lead and mercury. If not disposed of properly, these substances can seep into soil and water, posing long-term risks to our environment and health. Proper recycling not only prevents these harmful chemicals from polluting ecosystems but also allows valuable materials like copper and gold to be reclaimed, reducing the need for new resource extraction.

Through this initiative, we collected an impressive 89.35 kg of e-waste—a clear testament to the impact that comes from collaborative action. 140 APU students participated in the event, each playing an essential role in spreading awareness on the importance of responsible e-waste disposal. This event allowed students to see firsthand the significance of managing electronic waste responsibly, and it demonstrated how a collective effort can make a measurable difference for the planet.

The success of this initiative would not have been possible without the dedication and coordination of Verdant Solar’s HR team members who played key roles in driving the collaboration forward and ensuring a smooth, impactful event. Special thanks also go out to APU, who offered invaluable guidance and leadership to the students involved. The event closed on a memorable note with a speech by our recycling partner that helped us understand the effects e-waste can have on the ecosystems and human health. This brought the purpose of the project into sharp focus, inspiring all attendees to take action. TM Enviro Industries Sdn. Bhd. also provided critical support in recycling the collected e-waste, ensuring that each item was handled responsibly.

Verdant extends a heartfelt thank you to everyone who contributed to this meaningful initiative. Each kilogram of e-waste collected is a step toward a more sustainable future, reminding us that together, we can create a greener, healthier world for all. We look forward to many more collaborations that continue to build awareness and drive positive environmental change.
