Name:
iphone/ipod/iPad USB Connector - Recycled P.E.T. Natural Cotton

Potential Cost Savings:
Power - no, Environment - Lots!

Purpose:
To reduce the use of plastics and new materials in electronic goods.

How it works:
Why is it important to make electronic products out of sustainable materials?

If the annual global e-waste output was put into containers on a train it would circle the whole world.

E-waste is one of the greatest challenges of waste management.

Crude “recovery” of valuable materials like copper from PVC coated wiring is dangerous to health and the environment.

PVC is the second most used plastic in the world, is not easily recyclable, and when burned releases highly toxic hydrogen chloride gas and dioxin.

More than 14 billion pounds of PVC are currently produced per year in North America (per the Washington Toxics Coalition).

There is no globally standardized approach to managing e-waste, and even in developed countries no simple path for consumers to recycle end of life electronic equipment and wiring (and know exactly where it ends up).

F.A.Q.'s:
Q- Do they last as long as normal cables?
A-Yes, probably a little tougher!.
