Rainforest Concern
Imaginative ways to support Rainforest Concern
You can help us by clearing your cupboards and drawers of mobile
phones, and we can use them to help prevent the clearing of
rainforests. Recycle your phone for up to £180.00 and at the same time
help raise funds to support Rainforest Concern. Sending in mobiles to
envirocharities ensures that the phones are reused where possible, or
end of life recycled. New mobile phones require materials such as gold
and copper amongst others, and in some cases these materials come from
mining facilities that can damage or destroy key environmental areas
such as rainforests. Reusing and recycling mobiles helps reduce the
need to mine these new materials. Choosing to reuse and recycle mobile
phones means we are actively choosing to conserve resources, prevent
mobiles taking up unnecessary space in landfill, and reduce the chances
of mobiles contributing to landfill leachate which can leak from
landfill sites and contaminate aquifers and soil. Click on heading
