about Green Screens

NYC_Grn_Bird_TV.pngAs technology continues to evolve at a rapid pace, more and more consumers are looking to replace their outdated equipment with new, energy-efficient products. However, with technology constituting an estimated 87.5 percent of landfill toxic waste, it is vital for consumers to understand the importance of recycling technology in an environmentally responsible manner. 

To make electronic recycling easier, Green is Universal has partnered with WNBC and GreeNYC to present Green Screens, an electronic recycling event.
