Most municipalities have Publicly-Owned Treatment Works (POTWs) with secondary treatment that uses microbial processes to decompose waste. If yours is one of those, (I know Fitchburg is one, for example) then Ethylene Glycol is FINE for that - the bugs love it and the byproducts are harmless and no energy is used to treat it (well, essentially none, anyway). Pour it down the sink. I would not put it in a septic system since the bugs there may not be thriving in sufficient quantities to handle it, and any excess could get into groundwater, as others have mentioned. Never pour any such thing on the ground.
