I have a cast-iron tub in the garage that contains one old computer monitor dumped on our lawn by some jerk last spring, a broken clock radio, and a broken VCR. Inside, I have three plastic bins filled with functioning, but technically obsolete cameras, old cell phones, video recorders, old blackberries, at least five remotes, and lots and lots of cords. We even have the “ornamental” computer—it still looks good sitting in the kitchen, but hasn’t worked very well for months. We are a mountain of e-waste waiting to happen, especially with spring cleaning fever beginning to set in.
The temptation is to dump it all at the town recycling center–and declare victory for managing to find it during the 4 hours it’s open on a weekend. But that doesn’t seem very green—so what to do?
