Most absurd greenwash yet
There are 1,000 uses for recycled water bottles (including polar fleece and dog beds)... there are ZERO uses for a dead cell phone needing a $60 battery.

This is absurd considering millions of cellphones are chucked EVERY WEEK because new batteries or chargers cost more than new phones.

Plus each new phone needs new chargers, new headsets, new protectors... each in it's own box and plastic, shipped from 5,000 miles away.

So taking from a well-established recycling stream.. instead of creating universal chargers, headsets & batteries is even worse than doing nothing.

No offense, Heather... just I hate corporations using the press trying to greenwash practices that just ARE NOT green.
