Did You Know?
  • The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates that more than 40 million computers become obsolete and are discarded every year. However, only 15 percent of these computers are recycled, which means that 85 percent of them end up in landfills across the country.
  • According to the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP), unwanted consumer electronics - cell phones, computers, televisions, DVD and MP3 players, pagers, PDAs and other devices - are the fastest-growing category of waste in Massachusetts.  Until recently, Bay Staters were discarding more than 900,000 units annually on average, but that number has increased due to the federally-mandated transition to digital television broadcasting.
