Verkoopmijntelefoon.nl helps restore the ecosystem by planting trees. We believe it is important to do our part to help the environment because a cleaner, better environment is necessary for a sustainable economy. This is why we have partnered with One Tree Planted. For every phone purchased, 1 tree is planted. By doing so, we not only help restore the ecosystem but also create jobs.
Our goal is to plant 700 trees before 2024. Meanwhile, the counter stands at more than 450 trees planted. We received a certificate from One Tree Planted on February 1, 2023 showing that with our contribution 300 trees were planted in the rainforest. Naturally, we are very proud of this. But we are not there yet. You can sell your old Samsung or iPhone to us today so that together we can plant even more trees. 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 why:
- Trees provide oxygen: Trees are essential for producing oxygen in the atmosphere. They absorb carbon dioxide and produce oxygen through photosynthesis. As a result, they help improve air quality and combat climate change.
- Trees added biodiversity: Forests are home to a wide variety of plant and animal species. Planting trees can help maintain or increase biodiversity by providing a combined supply for different types of animals and plants.
- Trees help prevent soil erosion: Trees help stabilize soil, preventing soil erosion. They also reduce the impact of floods and reduce the amount of sediment and chemicals entering progressive waterways.
- Trees help improve water quality: Trees play an important role in filtering water. They help reduce the amount of sediment and chemicals entering 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, tree planting is an important step to restore and preserve the ecosystem. By planting trees, we can increase biodiversity, improve air quality 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 it promoted to see if your stuff really needs replacement or if it can still be repaired or if you can use parts of it. This is because some resources are becoming less and less and it may run out sometime in the future.
At Verkoopmijntelefoon.nl we strive for a sustainable society. We are therefore committed to a better environment. We do this by buying mobile devices that people no longer use. Many people have mobiles at home that they no longer use because they have a new device or because the device is damaged and the repair is too big a cost. A shame! You can also sell your old cell phone to Verkoopmijntelefoon.nl.
We refurbish cell phones, also called overhaul. Whereby certain parts are replaced, allowing the device to 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. This greatly reduces waste and eliminates the need to extract new raw materials to produce a new iPhone or Samsung.
Will you help us get to the 700?
We hope that after reading this article, you too will want to do your part for a better ecosystem and environment. Together we can achieve more, so quickly check your closets and drawers at home to see if there are any old phones lying around. We will gladly take them from you.
