Year-upon-year, we see ever-increasing stockpiles of obsolete, broken, and discarded tech. As humanity continues to mass-produce technological hardware, so too do we mass-produce the associated electronic waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recycling electronic waste<\/a> correctly is crucial. Many of the components in electronic devices contain toxic substances such as cadmium, beryllium, and lead. Some even contain arsenic. Those devices that end up on landfill, therefore, can cause untold damage. As the components degrade, they can leak toxic substances into the soil, water, and air around them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s clear that recycling old tech is really important. But is it important to everyone? Or are there certain groups of people that are leading the way in helping to reduce electronic waste? This report will help to identify which Americans are the best recyclers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
