Green Tip for the Week
|
|
Computers are becoming an environmental scourge. More than 31 million PCs are thrown away worldwide each year. The plastic alone in each system requires 7 quarts of crude oil to make, and when computers are discarded, the heavy metals can become environmental hazards. Minimize this waste by choosing a model that can be easily upgraded. When it's really no longer useful to you, donate your computer through your town or to an organization that recycles IT equipment.
(Reprinted from: 1001 Ways to Save the Earth, by Joanna Yarrow)
