Alaska Airlines employee sparks innovative recycling tactic in Nome, Alaska, changing the game for Cargo business & planet

Glad to see that common sense does at times win the day and bravo to her. The real story here, IMHO, is that corporate listened and allowed a bottom-up idea to take hold. Alaska Airlines get some equity as well in the form of PR.

Nice to hear an employee getting recognition for a change. It's usually an employee idea, but then again someone higher up the food chain will claim it as their own idea.

Great idea, but I hope precautions are taken to keep any lithium-ion batteries in electronic waste off the aircraft.

cool! though I, too, am nervous transporting lithium-ion. Too many batt 'incidents' in R/C days to record.
djames225
IIRC most, if not all, lithium batteries will be removed and not be transported.
