E-Cycle Wisconsin performs well in its Second Year

E-Cycle Wisconsin brings in 6.2 pounds of E-Waste per resident in 2011, providing boost to Wisconsin economy. Support the partners who help us with this important task.  A typical older desktop computer and a CRT monitor weigh approximately 60 pounds combined. The two components contain roughly:

15 pounds of glass

14 pounds of plastic

12 pounds of iron

8 pounds of aluminum

4 pounds of copper

4 pounds of lead

1 pound of zinc.  Recycling is good for Wisconsin.
