If you’re like us, then you cringe when people in your office throw old ink and toner cartridges in the trash. Isn’t there anything that can be done? Well there is in fact something that you can do, not only at the office, but also at home. Recycle For Breast Cancer is a national non-profit organization that collects used ink and toner cartridges, cell phones, palm pilots and more to help fight breast cancer and to benefit the environment. All of the net proceeds from the recycling program go to a national breast cancer foundation. The program is so easy to participate in and there’s no cost to you. So basically, there’s really no excuse to not be doing it. You can log on to the Recycle For Breast Cancer Web site and fill out a form to request a pre-paid shipping label for your personal use and you can also request free supplies for the office, including postage paid mailing bags, recycle pails and collection boxes. Not only are you supporting a good cause but you’re helping to protect the environment as well. ::Recycle For Breast Cancer [by KD]
