Wisconsin’s electronics recycling law was implemented on January 1, 2010. E-Cycle Wisconsin affects all Wisconsin residents as it prohibits the disposal of designated electronics in a landfill or incinerator.
Computers, computer accessories, TVs, cell phones and other electronics contain harmful materials, including lead, mercury, cadmium, chromium, other heavy metals and chemical flame retardants. If electronics are landfilled, incinerated or illegally dumped or burned, these pollutants may contaminate water, air or soil and affect human and environmental health. Improperly handled discarded electronics may also pose health risks to workers from companies that manage the electronics.
It is also important to recycle electronics because of the valuable reusable materials they contain, including precious metals, steel, glass, plastics and others. Recycling or reusing these materials reduces environmental impacts and economic costs by reducing the need for virgin materials in new electronics.
