Table 1-h and Table 1-i below are summaries of the annual tonnage of all materials by all programs operated by Orange Community Recycling and others within Orange County. 2007-08 compared to 2008-09. The very slight 0.9%tonnage decline is partly attributa.ble to the declining economy and increased recycling activity. The smaller decline in recycling compared to declines in waste could be partly due to addition of cardboard to curbside and increased recycling despite . the smaller newspapers, lighter weight containers, etc. The Toxics Reduction Improvements Program(TRIP)tonnage increased 4%overall with the electronics component of it increasing 10%in 2008-09. The increase in electronic discards represents a cleaz response to technological shifts to e.g. flat panel tele�isions and monitors replacing CRTs and DVD replacing VCRs.
