Mobile phones can be considered one of the best inventions during the last 50years and the most popular among users. There different uses like storing information, GPD, browsing etc. Green mobiles have come into existence as they have some critical differences between them and mobiles we have been using.

The environmental impact of mobile phones lasts a life time. Like any product that is manufactured, mobile phones contain components in thousands using different materials. With the ever increasing numbers coming to be used and with several billions in use the production of carbon dioxide is immense. Some calculation has been done to estimate and according to them the use of a mobile for about an hour every day throughout the year produces 1ton of carbon dioxide which is what a jetliner produces on a single flight from New York to London.

In what way a green mobile can be considered better than the normal one?

The most significant is the use of recycled material and the consequent reduction of virgin materials being used.

Reuse of plastics up to a maximum of 6 times. Many of the eco friendly cell phones use recycled plastics in the range of 50% to 80%.

Chemicals which are poisonous like poly vinyl chloride, brominates, lead, cadmium etc; are never used in the manufacture of green mobile phones.

The software design for green mobile is such that less energy is required for its use, which is a great advantage. The charging of the battery is less frequent. The practice of leaving chargers on for a long time will come to an end and save considerable energy.

Packaging of mobile phones has been a difficult process requiring a big box and a lot of material for prevention of damage during transit. Green mobile manufacturers reduced the use of materials or used recycled materials and packaging is no problem.
