    CRT recycling- why its so hard to get rid of them

    This may not be news to many of you but this article is interesting- big problems with stockpiled CRTs, the states may have to pay for disposal.




    http://www.nytimes.com/2013/03/19/us...gewanted=1&hpw
    from the article
    "Recyclers say there is still money to be made on processing the old monitors and televisions if companies charge a price that more genuinely reflects the expense of disposing of the glass properly. But practices like “greenwashing,” whereby companies pretend to engage in environmentally responsible disposal practices, hinder such progress"
