REVIEW - www.compare-phonerecyclers.com

The home page of www.compare-phonerecyclers.com is quite busy but actually the key part where you enter your phone details is close to the top making it simple to see what you need to do. The site gives you the option of simply entering the make and model of your phone, searching phones by manufacturer or from a complete list of phones. Then just one click will compare the cash (or vouchers) currently being offered by the 14 recyclers from which prices are compared. This is a pretty comprehensive list of mobile phone recyclers and we didn’t find a site offering a greater range of comparisons.

Sustainable Shopping

A German consumer guide published in September entitled The Sustainable Shopping Basket is available to view online in English. The German Council for Sustainable Development has updated the document from one published in 2003 and, whilst some of the information is related to Germany, it does give a good overview of how to go about shopping sustainably.

REVIEW - The Green Brief Iphone App

The first screen on the Green Brief Iphone App shows 4 headings - Business, Home, Travel and a section for adding your own tips. When you go into each section it breaks it down into further sections, for example on the home section it has a tip section on Bathroom, Kitchen, Loft, Lounge, Study/Home office and finally Whole Home. Each Tip has a score from 1 to 5 on cost and then the saving you can make and also tells you were you can find more information on the Internet.

The Green Brief Iphone App really is a great App for the price and can only get better with time as more and more information is added.

New Food Bank in Oxford

A new food bank called Re-plenish has started taking food from two supermarkets which would otherwise be thrown away. The produce, which is past its sell by date but not past its use by date, is used to help people in need. Sounds like a great way to reduce the mammoth amount of food wasted by supermarkets.
