It's An E-Waste Drive

Z. Madison readers in the Carroll Gardens/Cobble Hill/Brooklyn Heights/Red Hook area take note, Councilmember Bill de Blasio's organized a 3-day E-Waste Drive for this weekend. The Deets:

Where: Smith & President Street (via subway, take the F or G to Carroll Street)

When: Sat. 6/2 10am - 4pm, Sun. 6/3 10am - 4pm and Mon. 6/4 4-7pm

What: Finally a place to ditch those outdated VCRs, Computers, Cell Phones, Fax Machines, etc. currently wasting space in your already crowded abode

Why: According to the EPA, approximately 70% of heavy metals present in landfills come from e-waste, creating toxins in our waste system and our environment. This is a way to more safely dispose of our unwanted e-goods and techy toys.

Thanks, Councilmember de Blasio!
