Are empty toner cartridges really an environmental nuisance?

0

It takes over 4 litres of liquid petroleum to manufacture a typical all-in-one toner cartridge. It takes less greenhouse gasses to produce a remanufactured cartridge than a virgin cartridge. If the cartridges are not reused we are continually using a non renewable resource and when we have finished using it we are dumping it in landfill where it may take thousands of years to break down.
