Best Answer

When you throw out a computer, it usually goes to a factory where they take apart the computer and take out certain parts that can or cant be recycled.

Or they "recycle" it by shipping them overseas to China and burning the desktops or laptops. Which relates to why China has so much pollution.

Why shouldn't schools have longer passing periods?

Extending passing periods could disrupt the class schedule and potentially reduce instructional time. Schools have specific schedules to ensure an efficient use of time and resources, so lengthening passing periods may not align with these objectives. Additionally, longer passing periods may not necessarily address the root causes of why students struggle to move between classes in the allotted time.
