Waste Management CFL Recycling Kits

Waste Management has done great things for the green movement. The company has created enough gas-to-energy products to power over 160,000 homes every day, and it has also employed a waste-to-energy technology called Wheelabrator which has turned over 145 million tons of waste into 75 billion kilowatt-hours of energy.
Now they’ve gone and created the Think Green from Home Recycling Kits. These kits allow people to send in their old CFLs, fluorescent tubes and batteries to Waste Management to be recycled.
The kits come with re-sealable bags and a box where you can pack in your used items, and then ship them back with a pre-paid shipping label. Even though the kits range from $14.95 to $59.95, that’s a small price to pay for helping out our planet. (3 votes) »
