Cell Phone Environmental Impacts
May 22nd, 2010
Cell phone manufacturing environmental statistics?
Does anyone know where I could find some stats on the environmental impact of cell phone manufacturing?
I am writing an article for a newsletter about cell phone recycling and how it helps the environment and would like to add some statistics for emphasis. Are there any web sites with this kind of data?
It’s going to be the same impact as any electronic assembly plant making printed circuit boards and integrated circuits, oh, don’t forget the batteries.
