Mujhe bhi yehi wala idea chahiye.

@aj27july if you are thinking of throwing them in the dust bin then they can still work.You have to crush or break them.

It is not just a question of disposing of it, but how to do it in an environmentally friendly way. In our state (Kerala) nowadays people are aware of such issues and there are regulations restricting usage of plastic.
Let us try to dispose of it in such a way that it will get recycled.

CD DVD have polycarbonate plastic as base material which are biodegradeable sp don't afraid of creating soil pollution..

Just crush them and through them out.. and please do no t buy any DVD/CD shredder that's waste of money.. just crush them by good enough...

the best thins is that pack all of them in a bag and throw them in garbage...Municipal corporation will take care of the rest...or even a better idea..check a site where some house is being built.usually ppl use lot of soil in low areas..if u dump ur cds there..nothing wrong will happen to ENV..they will be buried under the foundation.....

Use them as coffee cup coasters... Originally, CDs that did not burn properly were called coasters because they were of little use for anything else... By using them as coasters, you dont have to dispose them off... Also, you will find innovative uses for cds on the internet for art-from-waste kind usage...
