Verkoopmijntelefoon.nl helps restore the ecosystem by planting trees. We believe it is important to contribute to the environment, because a cleaner, better environment is necessary for a sustainable economy. That is why we have entered into a partnership with One Tree Planted. 1 tree is planned for each purchased phone. |||UNTRANSLATED_CONTENT_START|||Hierdoor helpen we niet alleen om het ecosysteem te herstellen maar ook werkgelegenheid te creëren. |||UNTRANSLATED_CONTENT_END|||
Our goal is to plant 700 trees by 2024. The counter now stands on more than 450 planted trees. On 1 February 2023, we received a certificate from One Tree Planted showing that 300 trees have been planted in the rainforest with our contribution. Of course, we are very proud of this. But the workers have no such choice. You can sell your old Samsung or iPhone to us today so that we can plant even more trees together. Will you help?
How does planting trees contribute to the ecosystem?
Planting trees is a reliable way to restore the ecosystem. Here are some reasons:
- Trees provide oxygen: Trees are essential for producing oxygen in the atmosphere. They absorb carbon dioxide and produce oxygen through photosynthesis. |||UNTRANSLATED_CONTENT_START|||Hierdoor helpen ze de luchtkwaliteit te verbeteren en de klimaatverandering tegen te gaan. |||UNTRANSLATED_CONTENT_END|||
- Trees added biodiversity: Forests are home to a wide variety of plant and animal species. Planting trees can help to preserve or increase biodiversity through a combined supply for different species of animals and plants.
- Trees help to prevent soil erosion: Trees help to stabilize the soil and thus prevent soil erosion. They also reduce the impact of flooding and reduce the amount of sediment and chemicals that end up in gradual waterways.
- Trees help improve water quality: Trees play an important role in filtering water. They help reduce the amount of sediment and chemicals that end up in unknown waterways, improving water quality.
- Trees reduce the impact of climate change: Trees help reduce the effects of climate change by reducing the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and reducing the impact of floods and droughts.
All in all, planting trees is an important step in restoring and preserving the ecosystem. By planting trees, we can increase biodiversity, improve air and water quality, prevent soil erosion and reduce the impact of climate change.
With refurbishing, fewer raw materials are used
As you have read, planting trees is a good and important way for the ecosystem. Only there are more ways to contribute to the environment. Not for nothing is there a promotion to see if your items are really in need of replacement or if it can still be repaired or if you can use parts of it. This is because some raw materials are becoming less and less and it may run out in the future.
At Verkoopmijntelefoon.nl we strive for a sustainable society. We are therefore happy to work for a better environment. We do this, among other things, by buying mobile devices that are no longer used. Many people have mobile phones at home that they no longer use because they have a new device or because the device is damaged and the repair is too costly. That’s a pity! You can also sell your old mobile phone to Verkoopmijntelefoon.nl.
We refurbish mobile phones, also called overhauling. Where certain parts are replaced, so that the device can be used again. If the device has suffered so much damage that repair is no longer useful, we will use the parts that are still in good condition for other devices. As a result, the waste pile is much less and no new raw materials have to be extracted to produce a new iPhone or Samsung.
Will you help us to the 700?
We hope that after reading this article you will also want to make your contribution to a better ecosystem and environment. Together we can achieve more, so quickly check your cabinets and drawers at home to see if there are any old phones left. We are happy to take them over from you.
