Today, natural resources, energy and time are more precious than ever before. That is why Motorola created the environmentally responsible Motorola W233 Renew mobile phone. Not only is the phone’s housing made using plastics comprised of recycled water bottles and 100 percent recyclable, but the Motorola Renew is also the world’s first carbon neutral cell phone. The Motorola W233 Renew delivers the quality you expect from a Motorola phone while empowering you to reduce your carbon footprint.

Carbon Free Motorola phone
Motorola is making it easier for you to support the environment. Motorola Renew is the first certified CarbonFree alternative to conventional mobile phones. Through its alliance with Carbonfund, Motorola offsets the carbon dioxide required to manufacture, distribute and operate the phone during its lifetime through investments in renewable energy sources and reforestation. Even the phone’s reduced packaging size and in-box materials printed using vegetable-based inks on 100 percent post-consumer recycled paper were created with the environment in mind. And, by reducing package size and weight, we help reduce transportation emissions. An in-box postage-paid recycling envelope also helps you easily return your previous mobile phone for recycling and contribute to environmentally responsible efforts.

The Consumer Electronics Show, better known as CES, has been held annually for over 40 years now. The first CES took place in New York City in 1967 featuring 200 exhibitors and 17,500 visitors. Since that time, the total show has increased by a factor 10. This year's CES show will again take place in Las Vegas, as usual, where visitors are welcomed from January 7 to January 10. The CES event appears to become more important every year. It is the first major world event where more than 2,200 CEA (Consumer Electronics Association) members are able to display their involvement in relation to development, manufacturing, distribution and integration of consumer electronic products such as audio, photo, video, mobile communication, and accessories. The CES 2010 starts off a brand-new year, offering a peek of what we can expect in the upcoming season regarding new products and services.
