You may have seen this Best Buy billboard. At first glance, it looks like just another billboard made out of funky bric-a-brac, but look a bit closer and you&#8217;ll notice that it&#8217;s made out of old electronics, including VHS players, bulky computer monitors, and all sorts of other outdated products. The ultra-clever billboard advertises Best Buy&#8217;s recycling program, which accepts broken, obsolete, and old electronics from from any store or manufacturer. It&#8217;s not always easy to figure out where to recycle e-waste, so we have to commend Best Buy for advertising its program in such a public venue. Hopefully it will help prevent a sizeable portion of old cell phones, TVs, and DVD players from ending up in landfills. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fastcompany.com\/1545081\/best-buy-makes-the-ultimate-e-cycling-billboard\" target=\"_blank\">More&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>News selected by Covalence | Country: USA |  Company \u2014 Ethical Quote link: <a href=\"..\/index.php\/ethicalquote\/?value=12\" target=\"_blank\">Best Buy<\/a> | Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fastcompany.com\/1545081\/best-buy-makes-the-ultimate-e-cycling-billboard\" target=\"_blank\">Fast Company<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you been to Times Square lately?
