T-Mobile recycling cell phones

By Aleksi | Permalink | No Comments | August 9th, 2007 | Trackback

In Britain, the cellular company T-Mobile, also very popular in the United States, is offering a program that is aimed at recycling old, sometimes not even functioning cellular phones. Apparently, some of the phones will be worth money, even as much as $160. The money can either be donated to a charity of the user’s choice, or redeemed for cash, depending on the value that is associated with it. In London alone, there is said to be roughly 52 million unused and old, working or not working mobile phones. T-Mobile is confident that this program will benefit the environment, as it has been commonly thought that in the years to come, one of the largest trash stockpiles will be old, unused cellular phones. Perhaps with some success, a similar program will be founded in the United States.
