Disposal of obsolete and non-functional computer and electronics products (e-Waste) is an ever growing issue. e-Waste is one of the fastest growing segments of our nation's waste stream.

Seventy percent of the heavy metals in our solid waste landfills are a result of e-Waste disposal, according to EPA estimates. Heavy metals such as lead and mercury are highly toxic substances that can cause adverse health effects.

In 2004 the California Department of Public Safety estimated that there were 315 million obsolete computers in the United States.

According to the U.S. EPA, over 2 million tons of e-Waste is generated in the U.S. every year.

These numbers are alarming considering that these numbers are growing every year, because there are so many new and different types electronic products brought to market every year which creates more obsolete electronics that do not get recycled properly.

Mercury, lead, and cadmium are some of the toxic substances in electronic equipment; these toxins can leak into groundwater and create cancer-producing dioxins when burned.

If you want to know your yearly contribution to this e-Waste, it is 16.15 pounds per year per person.

With new laws in effect that restrict where and how you can dispose of your e-Waste this effort can be daunting, especially while trying to keep a conscious mind on the environmental effects of your discarded equipment.
