Did you know that cell phones contain toxic materials such as arsenic, lead and zinc? According to a new study by environmental research group Inform, people in the U.S. will soon be getting rid of about 130 million cell phones each year. "That's about 65,000 tons of cell phones and ultimately they are thrown away, " says Joanna Underwood, spokesperson for Inform. Within the next 20 years the global warming trend is expected to generate rising ocean levels which can force human migration of literally millions of people now living in low-lying poverty-driven countries around the world. This would be in addition to the thousands of persons already in refugee camps fleeing from international military or political conflicts or from ecological disasters as witnessed in Darfur. For 20 years RIM has been dedicated to the assistance of displaced persons through offering them community support. These factors cause RIM to take seriously the importance of creating a sustainable environment. A new program has now been initiated for recycling cell phones and ink cartridges which we will ship for you. Your donation will help provide aid for the clients RIM serves as well as helping clean up the environment. Phones donated through our Phoneraiser program, however, are given new life. Your used phone is desirable to people living in developing nations. Phoneraiser makes your unused cell phones available to those who can use them, while keeping them out of the landfill. Every phone or ink cartridge you donate will mean money for RIM Clients! Bring/Mail your used cell phone or ink cartridges to the RIM address above!
