Recycle your mobile/ mobile accessory, Nokia will plant a sapling

[ajithsrn]

Two months back, Nokia India announced that it will plant a sapling for every old mobile handset/ accessory deposited back to its dealers or customer care centers.

 

This is an extension of its take-back programme that Nokia has been following globally. As per the Greenpeace 2008 report - Guide to Greener Electronics ( http://www.greenpeace.org/raw/content/international/press/reports/Guide-Greener-Electronics-10-edition.pdf ), Nokia is the leading green company, in terms of taking responsibility for the entire life cycle of its products, of the 18 market leaders that Greenpeace assessed.

 

And this is the impact... "Nokia collects 3 tonnes mobile waste in 45 days"
