Abstract :
There has been significant increase in bringing awareness across Saudi Arabia towards recycling and its impact on our environment especially in the past decade. Unfortunately, recycling succession process requires further cooperation by consumers to be advantageous and to actively promote recycling business in the competitive Saudi market. To overcome these challenges, we propose a new web framework that represents an opportunity for both Saudi recycling organizations and individual domestic consumers to collaborate and promote recycled products across the kingdom via e-commerce. Through our proposed framework, we aim to reduce wastage of recyclable goods, increase recyclable organization business, help low-income earners in Saudi Arabia to get quality recycled products at ease, promote recycling self-awareness campaign across the Kingdom through recycling community networking and at the same time reducing the consumption and cost of manufacturing new products.
