Reverse channels for recycling

In marketing-speak, reverse channels are channels that customers use to return things to manufacturers, retailers, or other organizations. More reverse channels are needed for recycling things we no longer need or want in as earth-friendly a way as possible.

Check out these recycling sites:

• Eco-Cycle has tips for recycling and an exchange page where consumers can list things they'll give away for free (and browse for things they'd like to have).
• Charitable Recycling and Wireless Fundraising accept donations of old cell phones, which are recycled responsibly.
• My Green Electronics lets you search for recycling by zip and search for "green electronics" by type of product (define "green electronics" if you dare).
