Any guesses as to how many digital TVs Americans will buy in 2007?
30 million.
That means there are going to be millions of sets tossed out and only 12% will be recycled. Sony has recently stepped up to the plate by creating the first "TV Take-Back Program" in this country. But many other manufacturers have been slow to follow Sony's lead.
Take Back My TV is a website that advocates for responsible handling of electronic waste, providing a simple way to let electronics CEOs know how you feel about the issue. They also have a map you can click on that will tell you where a responsible recycler of electronics is near you.
