Living Green in California blows away national average!
Living Green is a way of life in California! While many in our golden state may still be in the dark about recycling, California as a whole blows away the nation when it comes to responsible electronics recycling. The national average is reported to be somewhere between 10-20% of all electronics discarded are recycled. This means that the other 80%+ goes where exactly???

Over 130 families came through with various kinds of electronic waste - anything from really heavy televisions to a vintage 80's style car phone.
