Research the Internet to find how to donate or recycle your computer in your area. Write a brief paper outlining your options. Include the implications of just throwing your computer away, giving it away without clearing your hard drive, and options for clearing your hard drive. What environmental concerns do you need to be aware of?

Your paper should be 1-2 pages in length, well-written, free of spelling and grammatical errors, with content focused on the subject listed above.
