From Logan Circle Discussion List:
LoganCircleNews] Announcement: Ecycling in Washington DC Sept and Oct
Blessings All,
(please forgive the cross postings)
It is time to recycle those old computers and other electronics in the
District of Columbia. Currently the District only recycles these
“household hazardous materials” twice a year.
NBC4 Digital Edge Expo will be presenting their green alley again this
year. You will be able to bring your electronic items to the New
Washington Convention Center Sept 18 and 19 from 9 to 5pm.
The District will hold its regular recycling day at the Carter Baron
Amphitheatre at 16th and Kennedy Streets, NW from 9am to 3pm on October
23rd, 2004
Please help us protect the environment by disposing of electronics and
other technology properly. If you are worried about lead in your water
you should also be worried about lead in the air you breath. Dispose of
these electronics properly.
If you have computer parts that need repair do not give them to non
profit organizations most of them are not able to pay for the repairs.
If you have working equipment we have a technology donation program were
we take computers to give to needy families. Call us for more details
202.722.9832.
For more information contact the dept of public works 202.727.1000.
