Maybe. I'm not sure I'd call old books an "environmental nightmare." (They're made of paper, so in theory they can just be recycled -- or at least degrade back into natural elements?) Meanwhile, the electronic parts in old Kindles have a bit of an environmental impact too -- and are probably harder to get recycled.
