September 12, 2007
This document, compiled by the Computer TakeBack Campaign, provides useful statistics on the amount of e-waste in the environment and what portion of that gets reused or recycled. There's also information on how many electronics products are sold each year that helps put the waste stats in perspective.
A must for legislators and other policy makers, but also a useful reference for students, activists and concerned consumers.
