World’s First Mobile Phone Made Using Recycled Water Bottles

Posted by admin on January 7, 2009

w233_front_lit_tmo-smI glad to see somebody is thinking! Motorola, Inc a new mobile phone that is made from recycled water bottles. Boo-yah, Good for you!
Introduced at the Consumers Electronic Show 2009 Motorola shows off the MOTOTM W233 Renew.  The design looks great with clean lines and easy access to features. For those wanting to reduce your carbon footprint this mobile phone is for you. The phone has earned the Carbonfund.org’s CarbonFree Product Certificate. “Today, natural resources, energy and time are more precious than ever before,” said Jeremy Dale, corporate vice president, global marketing, Motorola Mobile Devices.

“From the product’s design, to the packaging to our partnership with Carbonfund.org, we wanted to ensure that this device makes the right impact with consumers and the environment.” Along with the new phone, Motorola has also reduced it package by 22% and all the materials inside the box are printed on 100 percent post-consumer recycled paper. One more little neat feature, Motorola adds a postage-paid recycling envelop inside the MOTOthW233 Renew’s box. I think I see a trend starting here. I wish…

    This is a great idea, and I’m glad they thought to reduce the waste of their packaging. Including the return mailer to recycle an old phone is a great touch. I do hope this sparks a trend.

    Good article and great website!
