Did You Know That:
- There are currently around 90 million mobile phones circulating in the UK
- That's an average of 2 unwanted handsets per household!
- As well as precious metals like gold and silver, mobile phones contain highly toxic substances such as cadmium and mercury
- If mobiles are thrown in the bin, they end up in landfill, where they can leak and pollute the environment
- One mobile phone battery could potentially be enough to pollute 600,000 litres of water
