Nokia To Provide Mode Eco-Friendly Mobile Phones

Nokia is said to be planning to launch about 40 new mobile phones this year, and all containing biodegradable components that can be easily recycled.

As a further step in the direction of recycling, Nokia are also evaluating plans to include a prepaid postage bag within each handset box to allow customers to be able to return their older model for recycling. The Nokia 3110 is already said to be sixty-five percent recyclable. Nokia also has plans to reduce the power consumption of mobile phone chargers by 50% by 2010.

Its good to see a big company take an interest in recycling and caring for the environment. Lets hope others follow suit.
