What do people do with their old, useable but outdated(过时的) computers? Most people don’t know what to do with them. Many old computers end up gathering(聚集) dust in homes. Many more are thrown out with the trash.
Finally, some computers are thinking of ways to reduce(减少) the amount of computer junk. Sony has agreed to help recycle（回收）old Sony products. Dell, Hewlett-Packard and others now also take back some equipment.
Laws（法律）are being passed, too. In Europe, computer companies will have to pay for collecting and recycle old Sony products. And 70% of computer waste must be recycled. The idea behind the laws is that computer companies themselves should pay the cost.
Yet while many people are throwing away good computers, others cannot afford them at all. Hundreds of organizations are working to solve this problem. These groups collect and repair old computers. Some also teach computer repair skills.
The computers then go to schools, charities(慈善机构) and needy individuals. Giving a used computer to one of these organizations can turn one person’s trash into someone else’s treasure(财富) and cut down on waste, too.
Nobody knows what to do with their old computer.
Many old computers are in homes, covered with dust.
Dell is one of the companies which are thinking of ways to reduce the amount of computer junk.
If computer companies want to collect and recycle their used products, they have to pay money.
Hundreds of organizations only collect and repair old computers
The story talks about ways to deal with used computers.

1970 was the World Conservation (保护) Year. The United Nations wanted everyone to know that the world is in danger. They hoped that governments (政府) would act quickly in order to conserve nature. Here is one example of the problems. At one time there were 1 300 different plants, trees and flowers in Holland, but now only 860 remain. The others have been destroyed by modern man and his technology (技术). We are changing the earth, the air, the water, and everything that grows and lives. We can't live without these things. If we go on like this, we shall destroy ourselves.
What will happen in the future? Perhaps it is more important to ask "What must we do now?" The people who will be living in the world of tomorrow are the young people today. A lot of them know that conservation is necessary. Many are helping save our world. They plant trees, protect wild animals, and so on. In a small town in the United States a large group of girls cleaned the 11 kilometer-long banks of the river. Young people may hear about conservation through a record called "NO ONE'S GOING TO CHANGE OUR WORLD". It was made by the Scatles, Cliff Richard and other singers. The money from it will help to conserve wild animals.
