Governor Jim Doyle signed Senate Bill 107 last Friday, a law that will help provide consumers with access to sites to properly recycle and dispose of electronic waste like old computers, printers, televisions and VCRs. Bill 107 bans certain electronics from landfills and requires that manufacturers of such electronics sold in Wisconsin must provide residents with a means of properly disposing of electronic waste.

What this Means for Consumers:

• Increased access to responsible electronics recycling. It is expected there will be at least one collection site per county, including more sites in densely populated areas.
• Consumers will not be able to dispose of many household electronic devices in landfills or incinerators in Wisconsin after Sept. 1, 2010. It is also illegal to dump, burn or bury these devices, so households will need to recycle them.
• There will be no changes in the types of devices consumers can buy, and no up‐front recycling fee added to the price of a new TV or other covered device.

The Milwaukee County Zoo recently debuted two new furry friends to the public: female Siberian Tiger cubs. Born on July 8, the little cubs weigh in at about 20 pounds each, and are cute and healthy. But there is one problem -- these little tigers don't have names yet! That's where you come in! You have until October 23 to submit tiger cub name suggestions to the Zoo. At the end of the official contest period, a committee will pick the entry with the two names they feel best suit the animals.
