Did You Know...
Computer monitors and televisions contain picture tubes, also called CRTs, which convert electronic signals into visual image. Because each cathode ray tube contains approximately five to seven pounds of lead as well as other hazardous constituents, discarded monitors and televisions are subject to California waste regulations administered by the the Dept. of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC).
As you may know, lead is a toxic substance that can cause lead poisoning in individuals and can be especially harmful to children. If lead-containing products are disposed of in landfills the lead can potentially contaminate our water supplies.
