Recycling Your eWaste
by Richard Corzo
As the Apple User Group contact for DACS I recently received
an e-mail from our regional liaison:
Keeping our earth healthy is everybody's responsibility, IMO.
A cable TV channel is helping to do just that. If you go to <http://www.gcycle.org/> and
enter your zip code, you will get information about where to
take your outdated computers, TVs, cell phones, stereo equipment,
and so, instead of dumping it in your trash.
For the full story go to http://tinyurl.com/4o7eye.
You may already know that DACS has offered to recycle old cell
phones. Just bring them to the general meeting or drop them off
in the designated box at the Resource Center the next time you
attend a SIG meeting.
I don't have an old cell phone, but among other electronic things
I have an old cell phone recharger and battery. I tried the recycling
Web site and found out that I should be able to turn these items
in to the local AT&T Wireless store at the mall. Why not
give this site (http://www.gcycle.org/) a try to see if it works
for you. Let us know (input@dacs.org) if you have success or
failure with any of the information provided by this site.
