Mobile phones collected at the match venue will be disassembled at working facilities for persons with disabilities in the city, which will lead to employment support for persons with disabilities.

Q. Why did you decide to start a business?
The ignition of electronic devices, including lithium-ion batteries, during the garbage collection and recycling process have become a nationwide issue. In addition, small home appliances such as mobile phones, when they are no longer needed at home, they may be discharged as burnable garbage without being separated, while rare metals (rare metals) that make up products can be recycled.
This is an after-meal project promoted by the Ministry of the Environment. ※As part of this, for this project aimed at strengthening SDGs initiatives, such as resource recycling and employment support for persons with disabilities, sports teams in the city will install and publicize collection boxes for used mobile phones at game venues. We will have you cooperate.
※ The “After Medal Project” is a successor to a project implemented to create medals to be used in the Tokyo 2020 Games.
This is an initiative that has been implemented as a Legacy to recycle mobile phones.
