Every time you complete this action, you will reduce emissions by an estimated 516 lbs. CO2e.

The average American household has nearly 3 televisions, each of which uses over $20 worth of electricity and emits about 250 pounds of CO2 annually. Just imagine the emissions that could be avoided if every one of the nearly 116 million households in America had just one television.

The EPA offers resources for the safe recycling and disposal of household electronics, televisions included. In most cases the electronics stores that sell these items participate in programs for their safe recycling.
