BONNAROO Mobile Phone Recycling Drive
DID YOU KNOW?
Cell phones contain toxic substances such as lead, nickel and zinc that enter the ecosystem when phones are taken to landfills or incinerated. There are over one billion out of use cell phones in the US alone. That’s more than 3 out of use phones for every person in the US
Less than 10% of cell phones are recycled properly. The rest enter landfills or incinerators, among other environmentally unsound destination.
Average life span of mobile phone – just 13 months!
In partnership with Rock The Earth, Musictoday and Collective Good, BONNAROO is calling on our friends to bring their old, unwanted mobile phones to the Rock the Earth booth for redemption. Each person bringing a phone will receive 20% Off future Musictoday purchases. AND each phone is worth one entry into the on-site sweepstakes drawing for cool prizes like DVDs, CDs, t-shirts, magazine subscriptions, merchandise, signed memorabilia, Festival 2010 passes, and many other great items.
Rock the Earth will be gathering old phones at the Rothbury and other festivals this summer, too. Visit www.RocktheEarth.com site to see if they will be at your concert. If you’re not attending any festival but want to participate visit www.rocktheearth.org to download a prepaid shipping label.
