Winter Olympic medals made from recycled e-waste




A library colleague sent me this article that I'd like to share about the Winter Olympic medals made from recycled e-waste.

The article is more of a green story, but I did want to send out a reminder that electronic equipment is recyclable....televisions, computers, monitors, fax machines, printers, DVD and CD players, etc.

Here are some bay area recyclers that accept e-waste.
