[GreenYes] Re: Computer Recycling

[Anne Peters <annep@no.address>]

  Hello,
I did extensive research on this very topic earlier this year and 
prepared a slide show which was presented at an EPA and other 
Waste/Recycle forums for waste planners in the rural Rockies and central 
states. There are several key models for rural electronics recycling - 
depending on your ability to charge participants or get grants, one or 
the other might work best and secure your community the most responsible 
recycling.
  
I don't think I can do attachments to this listserve so will send 
directly to you, and then feel free to call me with questions.

Sincerely,
Anne Peters
