However, LEDs have the advantage over LCDs of being disposable in the

advantage, of course. And both have the advantage over incandescents
that they work a lot longer.

LED lights are electronics and are collected along with other
electronics for recycling.  At least in Europe.

Actually, according to the signage at the local station for bulk
waste, recycling, etc., LED tubes go into the same container as
fluorescents.  Which seems odd.
