A study by Pike Research revealed that toxic waste discharged from discarded electronics (which includes cells also) is continuously rising. An estimated amount of 73 million metric tonnes toxic waste is likely to be added to the world\u2019s landfill by 2015.<\/p>\n

Businesses, houses, products or events can cause carbon footprints that greenhouse emissions have created. Cell phones do not consume a huge amount of power, but the materials used for their manufacturing and production constitute a sufficiently large carbon footprint. So, it is necessary to recycle old cell phones.<\/p>\n

The main thing is \u2013 the size of the carbon footprint released by your cell phones entirely depends upon you. If you discard it, your cell phone has the potential to add to the increasing volume of toxic waste. On other hand, if you recycle or\/and sell it, it is again used in a productive manner by lessening the necessity of manufacturing new parts, and helps to reduce the level of poison in the environment.<\/p>\n

Recycling or selling your cell phone is a more responsible attitude.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
