  Most Recycled Materials in 2009
 
  Earth911.com released the results of its 2009 Annual Recycling Report and surprisingly, electronics such as computers, batteries and televisions led the way.

The top 10 products consumers looked to recycle in 2009 using Earth911's Database were:

  1. Computers
  2. Batteries
  3. Televisions
  4. Paint
  5. Aluminum Cans
  6. Used Motor Oil
  7. CFLs
  8. Glass
  9. Fluorescent Lamps
  10. Christmas Trees

Earth911.com also discovered additional insights into recycling and consumer behavior. For example, 40 percent of respondents to a poll conducted on the Earth911.com homepage noted that when they buy a product, the "green" factor they are most concerned about is its recyclability. Also, 35 percent of Earth911 readers responded that their main challenge to adopting more green practices is money.

Something seems to be missing from the list...paper (particularly newspaper). I find it hard to believe that paper recycling doesn't top the list, let alone not even make the list. Click here to download the whole report (pdf).
