"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."
