I would like to take my old desktop to Best Buy for recycling. I can't wipe my hard drive the normal way because the desktop no longer works. What would be the best way to make sure I don't recycle my confidential info? Is it hard to remove the hard drive?
Answer
You could format the drive multiple times, or remove it and putting it in an external drive case. That can be used on a new computer if you buy one.

Ok so over here we already know that we should recycle materials and all, but the problem is that not everybody knows how to recycle them. so what are the places here that we can send the materials to that we want to recycle? (in Egypt-Alexandria). Also are there any organisations that accept clothes and school books as a way of charity?
Answer
The easiest way to recycle is to keep things local -- there should be organizations in Alexandria that you can distribute recycled materials.
For clothes and school books, call various international NGOs and UN agencies that might serve the Alexandria area; a search on Google of such orgs, such as Save the Children, Oxfam, UNESCO, etc. should give you the contact info you need. Also call universities -- they might have community outreach programs as well. You can also call schools directly.
In additions to clothes and school books, think about computer materials and other tech tools (like cell phones). All of the above may be able to help you find to donate these products as well. If you can't find charities that can reuse these items, contact recycling businesses that may recycle tech tools and electronics for-profit (which will keep tech waste out of your landfills).
