Mobile operator O2<\/a> has today congratulated themselves after their recycling scheme (O2<\/a> Recycle), which enables consumers from any network to sell their old phone in order for it to be reused by others, took in 3 million phones over the past 10 years (saving 450 tonnes of mobile phone waste from landfill).<\/p>\n

The operator claims to have paid out a total of \u00a3226m<\/strong> to 2.7 million customers recycling their old devices since the scheme began (over the last couple of years this value has been averaging \u00a3500,000 each week). Meanwhile Apple iPhones’ make up 70% of all devices sent into the scheme, with new iPhone launches tending to cause a predictable surge for device trade-ins.<\/p>\n

Typically 95% of devices received are in good condition and are resold back into market. A high proportion of sales now take place within the UK, reducing carbon emissions from transport. Meanwhile other consumers will probably find that they can often get more money for their kit by using eBay, provided they have the patience for it.<\/p>\n

Nicola Green, O2<\/a>’s Director of Corporate Affairs, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“As a responsible business, we recognise the importance of doing the right thing for our customers and for the planet. We\u2019re extremely proud that, over the last ten years, our pioneering O2 Recycle scheme has saved 450 tonnes of waste from landfill \u2013 that\u2019s the equivalent of thirty-five London buses, as well as paying over \u00a3225 million back to environmentally conscious customers.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Earlier this year O2 also boasted that it had achieved recertification to the Carbon Trust Standard for Supply Chain at level 3, the highest possible level. The standard is the world\u2019s first independent certification for recognising organisations that are measuring, managing and reducing greenhouse gas emissions within their supply chains.<\/p>\n

The operator was also the first mobile company in the world to achieve the Carbon Trust Triple Standard for carbon, water and waste, and to introduce an Eco rating for new phones \u2013 working with manufacturers to assess handset sustainability credentials, providing an overall rating to help customers make an informed decision.<\/p>\n

Finally, the company is taking action to eliminate single-use plastics from O2-branded accessories by the end of the year. Additionally, in the last year O2 sold over 250,000 phones without chargers, reducing the pile-up of additional unwanted chargers and electronic waste, albeit while confusing some consumers who expect such things when they buy a new device.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
