Motorola's new phone is 'carbon neutral'
Debuting this week at the Consumer Electronics Show in Vegas will be Motorola's latest mobile devices, including a phone that offsets its own carbon footprint, the company announced today.
The plastic to make the MOTO W233 Renew is derived from recycled water bottles. That also makes it "100 percent recyclable," according to Motorola. The company worked with Carbonfund.org to offset "the carbon dioxide required to manufacture, distribute and operate the phone through investments in renewable energy sources and reforestation."
The packaging is also 22 percent smaller than usual and the box and paperwork that comes with it are on "100 percent post-consumer recycled paper." You also get a postage-paid envelope to send in your old phone for recycling at no cost to you.
Here's the specs:
• Nine hours of talk time (550 minutes) between charges; or 18 days of standby (450 hours)
• WAP browser
• Mini USB
• 83 grams
• 45 x 110.97 x 14.7 mm
• Optional 2GB removable memory
• SMS, MMS messaging
• Available on T-Mobile USA in the first quarter of this year.
