subject: How to Become a Smarter Blackberry Owner [print this page] Yet there are other things that we all need to start being smarter about, whether we own Blackberrys or other modern mobile electronics devices. The most important of all, perhaps, would be the environment. Above we asked why you would throw out your Blackberry as if it were regular trash when there is clear value in it, but an equally important question is: why would you throw it out like regular trash when in fact it has got highly toxic materials and compounds inside it? Those elements and materialsfrom mercury to cadmium and diverse chlorides, to name but a fewwill seep into the ground water and the soil of whatever landfill they happen to be deposited in, and when thousands and thousands of such items are accumulated in this manner it is not difficult to see just what a serious environmental liability that is. Thankfully, sites like www.cashforberrys.com (which has several sister websites that target other popular electronics items) present us with a way to get around this quandary and become smarter protectors of our planet and its ecosystems. So the next time you're thinking about upgrading to a new Blackberry, you know exactly where you need to go!
