Mayor Bowser’s Sustainable DC 2.0 Plan established a target to achieve 80 percent waste diversion citywide without the use of landfills or waste to-energy by 2032. To help us reach that target, electronics were banned from the District’s waste stream in 2018 and manufacturers of certain electronics (televisions, computers, and related equipment) are required to collect a percentage of what they sell annually.
