How can I recycle my old TV?

Consumers can still watch television on their analog sets after the transition by upgrading to DTV with a converter box or pay TV subscription. But if you prefer to discard your old set for a new one, there are a few smart recycling options for you to choose from.

www.myGreenElectronics.org is a Web site created by the Consumer Electronics Association, which has information about recycling and donating your electronics products, as well as a searchable database to locate recycling facilities near you.

The Environmental Protection Agency has compiled a comprehensive list of local and national programs run by governmental and nongovernmental organizations, manufacturers and retailers, where you can donate or recycle unwanted electronics products. http://www.epa.gov/epawaste/conserve/materials/ecycling/donate.htm.
