Lesson 1: How the Apps Can Increase Digital Skills and Make Your Business Life Easier, More Sustainable and More Productive
Save the planet! Use smartphones that are manufactured from eco-friendly materials, recycled glass, PET, natural colorants, etc. to be sustainable
Search for green labels, as ECOLOGO, Carbon Trust Certification – where carbon footprint of the product has been measured and certified
When buying a new smartphone, recycle yours by selling it through applications or programmes that give you a discount when buying a new one or accessories, or give you money back according to its estimated value (see Samsung.com, Apple.com etc.)
Advantages of using smartphones
There are clear and obvious advantages of using your phone, especially when:
- you travel or you are on the road;
- you are far away from your PC or laptop;
- your laptop battery runs out of charge and no charger plug/ power bank is within reach;
- if you are working remote you still have access to the online documents even when not expected to need them;
- is less paper used, less threes cutted and no extra weight carried with you.
