Iv'e heard about the steps to make mini-USB a mobile standard, let's hope they start moves for a standard laptop charger too. We see lots of old chargers being recycled, laptop ones in particular.

They are horrible for the environment if they get thrown away and every part of them can be recycled!

Not only will it cut down on a lot of waste but it will make our lives easier. I have at least 20 old chargers sitting around between my cell phones and my husbands. We are planning on recycling them soon, but in the interim they have a box in the garage where we stick them all. I think a universal charger would be fabulous.

Also, your local recycling center might have a drop off center for used electronics equipment where people can pick up items like these if they want them.
