Mobile Recycling Day starts Jan 27, 2015. Bring your old cell phones and electronics to Green Drinks for recycling!

Call to Action is an international effort of the Jane Goodall Institute (JGI) to inspire action around recycling mobile phones (and other used electronics). Through these actions JGI is raising awareness about how such efforts can help promote conservation of critical habitats across the Congo Basin and around the globe.

Many of the metals and minerals used in these technologies are extracted from threatened chimpanzee habitats across the Congo Basin. Control over these resources has also fueled conflict among people – conflict that has resulted in the deaths of more than five million people.

Beginning on January 27, 2015 citizens around the globe can participate in Call to Action by gathering used electronics specially mobile phones, and sending them to one of JGI’s recycling partners. With one simple action, JGI’s friends and supporters are helping protect chimpanzees and their habitat.

Green Drinks NYC will set up a collection area for drop off at their event in Lily’s Bar.
