General Sustainability Announcements

Mobile phones present a growing threat to the environment. As of 2007, there are more than 750 million mobile phones waiting to be recycled in the US; either in drawers, or already in our landfills. Another 150+ million or so will be added this year and even more next year. Once in the waste stream, these devices may leak Lead, Mercury, Cadmium, Arsenic and other toxic substances into the water supply.

Throughout the month of November, drop off your old mobile devices (cell phones, pagers, chargers and PDAs) in one of the following campus locations:
