Millions of tons of electronic waste are generated world-wide each year. Rather than contribute to that waste, consider repurposing your electronic devices.*

• With an app such as "Alarm Clock for Me" your old iPhone or Android can become a bedside clock. Other apps such as "Alfred" can turn these devices into security cameras that you can use to check your home remotely from your current phone or on the web.
• Turn old tablets into digital photo displays. Apple's Photos app for iPads has a built-in tool to create looping slide shows and the Google Photos website lets you do the same on Android or Apple devices.
• Schools and nonprofit organizations may want your old electronics. To find such groups and the devices they need, check the website Digitunity.

Are your electronics beyond the usable stage?

• Earth911 can help you decide not only what can be recycled, but also how to recycle it.
• Old rechargeable batteries or cellphones? Go to Call2Recycle, put in your zip code and learn where you can drop these items off for free.
