GHGT program educates Hamilton youth about tech, recycling

Golden Horseshoe Green Tech (@GHGTrecycling) is a local non-profit organization, one of their purposes is to create alternative education opportunities for youth in the Hamilton community. A recent program of GHGT involved Hamilton students in grade 11 and 12 using e-waste to build robots! NewsClipTV (@NewsClipTV1) was there to cover the activity, check it out below. That’s a pretty cool robot if you ask me, especially considering it’s made out of recycled parts!

And here is the footage of the e-waste collection process itself at the Dixie Mall in Mississauga, with GHGT president Ali Shahidi and about 15-20 volunteers…

Thanks to Michael Canton (@valleytownmedia) for making me aware of this, it’s yet another great tech-related initiative in Hamilton!
