Home Depot recently launched their national CFL bulb recycling program. Are you aware that florescent bulbs contain mercury and are therefore considered hazardous waste, which is why we should dispose of them properly. I know a big reason why people don't care to recycle is not because they don't care about the environment it's because they are lazy. Admit it, we've all been guilty of it. Convienence is a major contributing factor when it comes to being green. Who the heck has time to research proper disposal of these bulbs. Not only that, but a lot of towns waste facilities won't even take them. What is one to do? Ah, have no fear, Home Depot is here! Home Depot recently launched their national CFL bulb recycling program. I don't know about you but there's at least 3 Home Depots in my town. The closest one is just 10 short minutes away. No more excuses, Home Depots are like Starbucks, there's practically one at every corner. Well not really but you get my point. Recycle those bulbs!
