The Electronics Graveyard

Or so me and my mom call it. I am refering to my town recycling center. Yesterday I went to drop off a non-working T.V. to be recycled. Everytime I go down there it always amazes me at what is available. At my local recycling center there is an adopt a bike program where you bring your unwanted bike and then the town gives it to someone in need. That's wonderful. Especially since it could help someone with employment, make them feel more independent and reduce carbon emissions. The whole point of this post is to encourage you to learn about your local recycling center. See what's available. More things can be recycled then I thought (a couple months ago I brought a broken hair dryer). If everyone took a couple of minutes to go drop off a broken computer or whatever you have we would be saving resources from the landfill, we would be keeping our water clean, and we would be making revenue for our town (since they sell everything to a private recycling company).
