If Santa or the Hanukkah fairy brought you new toys in the form of electronics, then don’t let your older models clutter up precious closet space, or worse, wind up in a landfill.  Tekserve has partnered with the Lower East Side Ecology Center to host ten recycling events throughout all four NYC boroughs on weekends in January.  The event collected 28 tons of equipment last year.  And although electronics account for only 1% of what’s in our landfills, they cause 70% of toxins in the environment.  Check out the website for more information including dates and locations as well as information on how to clear data from both Mac and PC hard drives.  All participants are entered to win a MacBook Air.
