We pay for ComputerBank to sustainably destroy and dispose of our old TV's and CRT (cathode ray tubes) These must be processed by a leaded-glass recycler / lead smelter. Just ask them for the price, this is something that we now factor into my ICT budget. At our school, safety comes first, so does dealing with eWaste. VITTA have on their website a position statement on this very issue if you need to raise the costs with your school council.<br>
<br>Heavy metal contamination from early Melbourne efforts at dealing with industrial waste is now being recycling back into the Port Phillip bay ecosystem from the channel dredging. If we continue to dump this stuff into landfill, sit back folks and enjoy your gift to the future .. <br>
