San Francisco Recognized for Responsible Handling of E-waste
Feb 27, 2012, www.ens-newswire.com | “Fewer discarded electronics will be going to landfills in San Francisco now that the city and county have achieved the status of ‘e-Stewards Enterprise.'”
“San Francisco’s “e-Stewards Enterprise” status was recognized last week by the Basel Action Network, the Seattle-based nonprofit that created the world’s most rigorous standard for electronics recycling. The e-Stewards Standard for Responsible Recycling and Reuse of Electronic Equipment, endorsed by 70 environmental groups worldwide, protects against the dumping of electronic waste in landfills, processing by prisoners, and the export of hazardous e-waste to developing countries.”http://www.ens-newswire.com/ens/feb2012/2012-02-27-093.html
