Motorola Announces First Carbon-Neutral Cellphone

Well here’s something interesting. At CES this year Motorola announced the “Renew” – a completely carbon neutral cellphone.

The phone is made out of recycled plastic water bottles, and any carbon produced by manufacturing, usage, etc is offset by Carbonfund.org.

Interesting that Motorola has chosen to make a special environmentally-friendly phone rather than convert their line entirely, but we’ll give them points for starting, and we’ll assume they’ll switch all their phones once the technology is perfect, right motorola?

In any case, it’s a nice gesture. No word on pricing or availability, or even some photos, but we’ll be waiting!
