I had no idea that cellphones and computers are hazardous! It kind of makes me scared to use my cellphone now. I have always known about microwaves being dangerous because they gave off radiation, but I am completely blown away that cellphones and computers contain mercury. What upset me even more is the fact that the people in other countries are the ones being harmed by the toxins we use on a daily basis.
Apparently it is important to dispose your old cellphone properly. I am happy I read this article because I am guilty of just throwing away old cellphones in the trash. Also, the article stated how you should hold off a year before purchasing a new cell phone. The way cellphones are made today, there is no way a cellphone would last three whole years! I have always taken really good care of my cellphones, but they always just quit working after about two years.
Jaci holding off on buying new cellphones also caught my attention. I never keep a cell phone for longer than a year and a half before im bored with it and have to have another one.
