    I don't think I'd want any of these tiles in my house.

    Prior threads mention some use of CRT material on landfills ("Alternate Daily Cover"), which I thought was weird, at least no my non-technical / scientific mind. I should read more about it to get a better understanding. There are a few companies that are (or were) separating lead from glass and reusing / reselling those individual components.



    A few companies involved in either of these (separation/refining or ADC) are: ECS Refining, Nulife Glass, and Kuusakoski Recycling.

    Scary numbers regarding the amount of material sitting around (and God only knows what's sitting underground and/or in the oceans already).

    I agree with junkfreak - hope a safe, viable option comes along in the (near) future.
