Sustaining the environment

Why should I recycle my old mobile phone?

There may be more than 100 million phones going to landfill unless they are reused or recycled. O2 runs a carbon neutral phone 'take back' scheme that directly benefits registered charities such as Rainforest Concern. We have collected 170,000 phones, but need your help to collect more. Send your phone by post to: 'Freepost O2 Recycling'.
