Green up Colorado

Greetings:

Well since this is Earth Day I have been paying special attention to what I am reading and hearing about how to help green up the planet. My dear friend Karen VanCleve shared a tip in her latest Newsletter "The Spark" on how to recycle computers and print cartridges. The information is for those of us who live in the Denver Metro area, but I bet if you check there will be a similar organization in your area.

"Do you have a computer that is ready to go to the "great beyond," but you don't know what to do with it? Here in Colorado there's a great new non-profit that will take your unwanted computers and peripherals, and donate a portion of their receipts to charity, Green Up Denver. I learned printer cartridges by themselves take 175 to 300+ years to fully biodegrade. The contents of a monitor and the CPU are dangerous to our environment and never fully decompose. So take a moment to pass along this information to others who may also need an environmentally-friendly solution for their unwanted computer. "

Live the Day
