There is little reason to throw away your mobile
phone, because of its undeniably extensive use.
However, there is also the desire to throw them
away when a sleeker and more fabulous mobile
phone is available. But beware! The improper
disposal of mobile phones does more harm! Check
this list of the five important reasons why you
should do recycle your old phone. 
Mobile phones are the most useful and trendy
gadgets available nowadays. A mobile phone can be
a way to connect offline (via text messaging or
via voice call) and online as well (via social
networking sites or business connections). Your
mobile phone can become your carry-on camera,
movie player, play station and many other things.
Since mobile phones nowadays are made to give you
the convenience and the luxury of having
everything you need in just one item, the trend

However, these forests are home to a number of
different species that play special roles in the
environment. Mobile phones usually contain
elements that are harmful to the environment and
can adversely affect animals and plants in the
area where e-waste is dumped.  Do not contribute
to this garbage problem! 
Mobile phone recycling helps save the wildlife. 
Used cell phones are included in the waste that
is dumped in countries with rising economies.
However, these countries usually have little idea
about what to do with these mountains of garbage,
especially since they are not theirs. They often
see no other option but disrupt the forest and
dump the garbage there, since those forests are
far from urban spaces.

Not only that, since mobile phones are composed
of different important elements such as gold,
silver, and palladium, which can be recovered if
they are properly recycyled. The elements are
highly functional and cost a lot, reusing means
there is less need to mine for these components,
saving the environment.   
To recycle your old phone is to conserve energy.
  • A single recycled used cell phone can save enough
    energy top owner a laptop for almost two days.
    This means that 130 million recycled cellphones
    could save enough energy to  power 24,000 homes
    for one whole year.

You may also opt to sell mobile devices to others
who would like to have your cell phone model.
Youll hit two birds with one stone youll have
cash in your pocket and you wouldve been able to
give someone what he/she desires.   
Mobile phone recycling reuses old parts for new
gadgets. 
  • Every year thousands and thousands of mobile
    phones are created to cater to the demands of
    buyers. These gadgets will, of course, need
    components to be fully finished. Through
    recycling, you can get cash for old cell phones.
    Not only that, youll help manufacturers reuse
    old components in their latest technological
    displays.

Not only that, there are organizations like the
Cell Phone for Soldiers Program, that aim to give
the soldiers a cost-free communication service
while they are on duty. By letting them use your
old and unused units they can communicate
directly with their loved ones who are far from
them. 
Mobile phone recycling can help charities. 
You might not believe it, but your used cell
phone is a great help for charitable
organizations or institutions. Mobile phones,
having a value on the market, can be donated to
charities or sold and the proceeds given to
charities.

People are not the only victims by this
phenomenon. Even the atmosphere is maimed as
these things mix in the air. The ozone layer will
be depleted further then, the suns heat will be
trapped longer inside the atmosphere. 
Mobile phone recycling can help prevent
serious illnesses.  Mobile phones are highly
toxic. They contain lead and mercury as well as
cadmium and bromide. All of these elements are
harmful to human health. If they are emitted into
the atmosphere, people who inhale the air can
suffer from health problems that are prone to get
more severe over time.

casually, because everyone knows their great
value.
