Have you ever stopped to think about how much waste is created by unused or discarded phone cases?
Smartphones have become an indispensable part of modern life. And each year we enjoy the benefits of the latest Apple or Android smartphone. Faster, more secure new features… and most of us buy a case to protect our substantial investment.
Thankfully phones are increasingly being taken back by manufacturers for disassembly and recycling, yet the cases accumulate at home or are thrown in the trash.
Companies like Pela Case (no affiliation) https://pelacase.com/ are working to change this by producing cases in a sustainable way that are both stylish and biodegradable - compostable, even.
It’s one small but important choice we can all make to “close the loop” and head towards a zero waste economy.
