Posted on: Tuesday, 23 August 2005, 12:00 CDT
Computer Recycling for Education announced today a licensing product campaign to promote their theme-character, Ewaste Eddie, at the National Recycling Coalition's 24th Annual Congress & Exposition, August 28-31, 2005 at the Minneapolis Convention Center in Minneapolis, MN, www.nrc-recycle.org. The campaign features Ewaste Eddie's proclamation: "Remember to Ecycle-it." Ewaste Eddie was created to partner with and help business, government, nonprofits and education to increase computer recycling and ewaste recycling through public awareness.
Recyclers, nonprofit recyclers, processors/brokers, environmental groups, colleges, and government agencies are encouraged to look for Ewaste Eddie at Booth #1001. Ewaste Eddie can be licensed for bill inserts, redemption coupons, posters, banners, fliers, comic books, curriculum, environmental education, educational software, consumer education campaigns, plush dolls, toys, board games, cartoons, apparel, public service announcements, theme parks, and much more. Ewaste Eddie is also available in costume for classroom appearances, assemblies, and community service special events nationwide.
"Our goal is for Ewaste Eddie, with his 'Remember to Ecycle-it' proclamation, to become universally recognized as the worldwide icon for computer recycling and electronics waste (e-waste) prevention. The U.S. Forest Service has a famous fire prevention bear. Our goal is to promote Ewaste Eddie as the international ambassador for educating the public on computer recycling, electronics waste prevention and electronics reuse, through social marketing," said Public Affairs Director Shannon Hale.
Computer Recycling For Education will also have a drawing for a copy of their book titled, "Computer Recycling For Education" (ISBN:0-9658664-0-8) at the NRC Expo. This is the only book written on the Best Practices for starting a computer recycling/refurbishing program or business and is distributed by Barnes & Noble www.bn.com.
