PHONE TURNS INTO A SUNFLOWER

_______ (2004) “Scientists make cell phone that turns into sunflower” RUETERS/YAHOO NEWS.COM/ 12/6.

When your cell phone is recycled, the internal parts may rust away or be used again, but the plastic cover turns into a sunflower.

The cover is plastic that degrades into the soil; a sunflower seed and fertilizer are mixed into the plastic. It is a totally biodegradable plastic and non-toxic. One should begin to see this involved in other products, because it can be made to be rigid or flexible and it endures.

Some 650 million mobile phones are made each year.
