    AUSTRALIA:CARTRIDGES FOR PLANET ARK COLLECTS 10,000,000TH CARTRIDGE
    In
    the seven years its been running, Planet Ark has recycled 10 million
    printer ink cartridges. That’s about 4700 tonnes of waste that didn’t
    go straight to landfill. That’s a pretty good effort, but I reckon we
    can do better.Because of the plastics and metals in printer cartridges,
    they take a long time to break down in landfill. But they can be
    relatively easily recycled, either being reused by printer
    manufacturers or recycled into new products.To find the nearest place
    to recycle your cartridges, point your browser at
    cartridges.planetark.org. It may take a little bit of extra effort, but
    it has a real benefit for the environment, so you should do it anyway.
