“Because these devices are so small, environmental impacts might appear to be very minimal,” says Bette Fishbein, a researcher at Inform, an environmental data research organization, who wrote the report. But, she says, the growth in cell phone use has been so rapid and to the enormous “that the environmental and public health impacts of the waste they create are a significant concern.” There are more than 135 million people now registered as users of cell phones and the number is growing, according to the Cellular and Internet Association, the industry’s trade group. The study by Inform said that on average a cellular telephone is kept only 18 months and in many cases thrown into a closet or drawer and finally discarded with the trash. By 2005, there will be at least 200 million cell phones

Cell phones contain many hazard materials including mercury and lead, that if improperly disposed can harm the environment, and potentially become an detrimental to the humans and wildlife.
Electronic devices thrown into the trash end up buried in landfills or burned at waste to energy facilities. There are better options such as reusing and recycling.

In the past decade, cell phones have become a leading
source of communication in our society. Many of us rely on them to communicate on a daily basis and we have plans for doing something with these products when they are replaced. These plans should include reuse and recycling! The massive number of cell phonese and various mobile devices now in the
circulation are presenting a growing concern to the environment. “As of 2003, there are more than 500 million mobile phones wait to be recycled in the U.S; either in drawers, or already in the waste stream. Another 100 million or so will be added this year and even more next year.� New York State residents now have a lot more opportunities to recycle their cell phones. Under the New York Wireless Recycling act, effective January 1, 2007, all wireless telephone service providers shipping for those phones. Before the legislation was enacted some service providers had established cell phone reuse or recycling. Before the legislation was enacted some service providers had established cell phone reuse/recycling and donation programs. We suggest that you search the internet to find a cell phone donation program.
