Over 3 MILLION fluoresent bulbs and 7 Million batteries are discarded every day and only 15% are currently being recycled. Why, most homeowners and business are not aware that these batteries and bulbs contain toxic elements that contaminate the soil and eventually find their way into our water tables and our food.
In February of 2006 a law was passed in California that forbids the disposal of these items in the the trash and you can be fined for doing so.
