Sony is a multinational company that a lot of offices in Latin America, including Brazil, Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Mexico, Panama and Peru. Sony is a worldwide famous corporation and the CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) sector of the firm set up a recycling program. It shows that even producing massive amount of electronics, the company is also committed to environmental issues. It is necessary to be aware of the environmental problems and so compensate in somehow. I hope they can do it better and better. The environmental issue created by many companies are so huge hence they carry out CSR project so that the affected areas can be restored. The recycling program called "Green Service Program" was launched in 2010. It aims to treat the useless products and forward to recycling systems instead of keeping the simple disposal way. In 2014, around 1,220 tons scrap were collected and processed to sustainable systems properly. Moreover, the company has an environmental campaign named "Live the Change". The campaign intends to aware and to educate citizens about the importance of caring environment and the idea of recycling electronic waste. For sure, the world is changing climate is changing and everyone stakeholder need to be used to lead with sustainable actions, projects and programs. Hopefully Latin nations and corporations shall create more programs like that. Follow bellow the link of the Sony Campaign "Live the Change".

Hello Sandhya, this is your mentor Chelwoon.
It is good to see that companies practice CSR activities related to their businesses. It has many benefits! Companies can plan and develop CSR activities better related to the field where they are already working in because they know well about how it works in their fields. This article shows a great example of it.
Thank you for the article!

Hello Sandhya, this is your mentor Joon.
Electronic industry is one of those industries creating the most pollution as it requires several steps of processing, and multiple distribution processes are included. As they contribute more on destroying the environment, they should contribute more on making up their actions too.
It was a pleasure for me to mentor you on past 6 months. What I feel, and realize now is that I have not been knowledgeable enough to provide more information related to different subjects. Hope you could keep up with environmental activities as well as your other works. Once again, thank you for following me.
Well read your article, and let's keep up!
Best,
Joon

Hello Sandhya Adhikari,
Great initiatives from Sony 👏👏 It is of utmost importance that all companies belonging to the electronics industry execute initiatives such as these to reduce the e-waste that is generated in the world and that is increasing every year.
Recycling of electronic products should be adopted by all technology companies.
Best regards,
