INTERNATIONAL – Last week we hit you with stacks of news on Nokia’s new recycling initiatives, following its global survey that highlighted that only 3% of us recycle our old mobiles. It’s been great to see many of you posting insightful, positive and passionate comments on the subject. Another exciting aspect is Nokia is really practicing what it preaches, pushing the mobile recycling agenda internally.
INTERNATIONAL – Today’s release of Nokia’s global recycling survey is sure to raise some eco eyebrows, with only 3% of us recycling our old phones and almost half of us just leaving our phones of yesteryear to rot a drawer at home.
Granted the situation isn’t going to change overnight, but even if the process of recycling phones lodges in our collective consciousnesses, and if it’s convenient (Nokia’s We Recycle scheme is growing with over 5,000 global drop-off points) the eco effects would be immensely positive.
