Have you ever wondered on how much e-waste do we generate on earth? Whether trashed or recycled, we get rid of our mobiles phones just becouse they get old fashioned!!
Watch the following video and answer the questions below.
HOW MANY PHONES HAVE YOU OWNED??
1.-Why does the video consider that dumping a phone is a threat to the environment?

ResponderEliminar1.- Because the movile phone is formed by a lot of materials, that materials are polluting.
2.- My mobile phone is very old and i don't no when i will buy a new mobile phone, but i think that people use buy a new mobile phone when your mobile has 2 or 3 years.
Thanks Daniel.

"it isn´t just made...(not make)....and better use " it is a threat, rather than "has" , ok?
