The Clean Earth Campaign
THE Canon CARTRIDGE RECYCLING PROGRAM
The Canon Cartridge Recycling Program fulfills the first initiative of Canons Clean 
Earth Campaign, which supports four critical environmental areas:
•Recycling in the Workplace
•Conserving Environmental Resources
•Scientific Research and Education
•Encouraging Outdoors Appreciation
The remaining “Clean Earth” initiatives are supported in the U.S. through 
sponsorships of the National Park Foundation, the National Wildlife Federation, and 
The Nature Conservancy and in Canada through donations to the World Wildlife 
Fund Canada and The Nature Conservancy of Canada.
Since its inception, The Canon Cartridge Recycling Program has collected millions 
of cartridges that otherwise would have been discarded into landfills or similar 
facilities. Instead, this rapidly growing program returns used cartridges to the 
manufacturing process, thus conserving an array of resources.
Becoming a part of this worthwhile program is easy. When your cartridge is of no 
further use, simply follow the instructions detailed for U.S. or Canadian residents. 
We appreciate your support of The Canon Cartridge Recycling Program. 
Working together we can make a significant contribution to a cleaner planet.
•Cartridges collected through this program are not refilled.
•You are not entitled to a tax deduction or rebate for the return of empty cartridges.
•This program may be modified or discontinued without notice.
