** CD RECYCLING INFORMATION

Did you know each year, billions of CDs and DVDs are manufactured, while
millions of these discs end up in landfills and incinerators? This is
harmful to our environment.

If you use, sell, promote, distribute, or manufacture compact discs, it is
important to know how and where to recycle them.

Compact Discs, when recycled properly, will stop unnecessary pollution,
conserve natural resources, and help slow global warming. Learn how at:
