Global Car Recycling Day is an annual event, to raise awareness of the importance of responsible car recycling - supporting sustainable car production and protecting our environment

While domestic recycling is second nature in most economically developed nations, cars are a complicated and potentially environmentally dangerous item - even more so with the advent of electric vehicles - that many people are still unaware can be effectively recycled.

With over 1.4 billion cars on roads globally, it's vital the public makes, and has the option to make, a responsible choice when their vehicle gets to the end of its life.

20th June is a day to raise awareness of the importance of responsible car recycling and to highlight the need for governments across the world to tighten car recycling regulations and support related industries.
