For those who want smartphones but are concerned about environmental impact and safe working conditions for employees, Fairphone seems to be the way to go:
Modern smartphone production is notoriously bad for the environment and many of the people who work along the supply chain. In 2013, Fairphone set out to change that with a phone that uses recycled raw materials instead of conflict minerals wherever possible. It is produced in factories with good working conditions and can easily be repaired to assure a longer lifespan than conventional smartphones.
E-Waste is an increasing problem and it’s being reported about by a variety of sources including PBS. Many people are interested in making more mindful choices when given the option. That’s why companies like Fairphone are succeeding.
Unfortunately E-Waste isn’t the only environmental health issue caused by new and increasing sources of technology. Activist Post also reports on a regular basis about environmental harm caused by all sources of wireless WiFi radiation and “Electrosmog.”
