CellForCash.com and Carbonfund.org Partner to Reduce Carbon Emissions Through Cell Phone Recycling
CellForCash.com and Carbonfund.org have partnered to help consumers reduce their carbon footprint every time they recycle a cell phone
(CSRwire) Ocala, FL – February 18th, 2008 – Which is rising faster, carbon
dioxide levels or the number of retired cell phones? Both pose hazardous
repercussions for our environment. To combat these issues,
CellForCash.com and Carbonfund.org have created a new eco-partnership.
Their goals are to reduce the amount of wireless industry waste and the
carbon footprints of Americans.
CellForCash.com, an online cell phone buy-back company, has committed to
offset two tons of carbon dioxide through Carbonfund.org on behalf of each
consumer who sells an unused cell phone for recycling on their website.
Those who are interested in supporting this campaign can visit carbonfund.cellforcash.com
for more information or to get started.
Both organizations have high hopes for their efforts.
"This program provides great benefits for eco-minded individuals," said
James Mosieur. Mosieur is the CEO of RMS Communications, the company that
operates CellForCash.com. "Individuals can get paid for recycling their
unused cell phones and also take comfort that CellForCash.com is helping
to reduce their carbon footprint at the same time."
"We are extremely excited about this partnership," said Carbonfund.org
founder Eric Carlson. He added, "Recycling used cell phones is a great
way to reduce your environmental impact, and getting two tons offset in
addition is a generous and forward-thinking move on the part of
CellForCash.com."
This unique partnership is an easy way for anyone to make some extra cash
and a difference for the environment.
