InterMarket Global™ Turns End-of-Life IT Equipment Recyling into World-Class IT Staffing/Projects

Nov. 24, 2009 - PRLog -- Atlanta GA USA - InterMarket Global™ announced today its agreement with Partners in Green IT to offer Zero-Waste-To-Landfill solutions for End-of-Life IT equipment for leading companies across the U.S.  This agreement not only provides companies in need of EPA certified and Basel Action Network (BAN) electronic component disposal but delivers a revenue share component that delivers access to world-class IT staffing and project work utilizing credits earned through waste disposal.

Mark Simmering, Managing Director of InterMarket Global™, shared, "After several hours speaking with Michael Lake of Partners in IT, I was not only impressed with their value proposition but extremely concerned about the huge volume of electronics equipment being stored in warehouses or being improperly disposed of in the U.S. and abroad on a daily basis."  For more details on this crisis, please visit the following links: http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=4586903n and http://www.ban.org/films/TheDigitalDumpTrailer.html

"With Lead, Cadmium and Mercury being major toxic substances in CRTs, computers, servers, and even fluorescent light bulbs, not only is improper disposal and lack of recycling of these items illegal, it is having a devastating impact on our environment, both in the U.S. and workers in third-world countries.", Simmering continues.

Partners in Green IT has developed an innovative program where companies can not only have their End-of-Life IT (and other items containing hazardous waste) recycled at no cost and in accordance with EPA, BAN, DOD, and other Global Standards, they have implemented a revenue share program where the proceeds from the sale to recyclers of valuable commodities in the waste (lead, glass, mercury, precious metals, plastics, etc.) are set aside in an account for each participating company.  This account can be tapped as an offset for IT staffing and project needs and other services provided by Partners in IT, Inc., the founders of Partners in Green IT.
