This fall (Oct. 15th,) Americans will receive rebates for swapping clunky home appliances for newer, green models

American TV & Appliance has announced a multilevel electronics recycling initiative that allows the recycling of most electronics, much of it for no fee.

E-waste comprises discarded electronic appliances, of which computers and mobile telephones are disproportionately abundant because of their short lifespan. The current global production of E-waste is estimated to be 20-25 million tonnes per year, with most E-waste being produced in Europe, the United States and Australasia. China, Eastern Europe and Latin America will become major E-waste producers in the next ten years. Miniaturisation and the development of more efficient cloud computing networks, where computing services are delivered over the internet from remote locations, may offset the increase in E-waste production from global economic growth and the development of pervasive new technologies.
