In the mid-1980's, 340,000 people in the United States owned cell phones. Today, that number is well over 250 million. World-wide, more than a billion people have
gone wireless, and most of them have no idea that inside the sleek, plastic
exterior of every cell phone sits a package of electronics laden with hazardous
substances called persistent, bio accumulative and toxic chemicals (PBTS). When
cell users toss their phones into the trash, PBTs like lead, arsenic, and cadmium
leak into the land, air, and water, eventually entering into the tissues of animals
and humans. Every year, 150 million cell phones-complete with batteries and
chargers- are pitched into the garbage instead of being re-cycled or safely
disposed of. As the popularity of cellular phones soars, growing number of cell
users are creating growing piles of toxic trash.

"it isn't that, spirit. he has the power to render us happy or unhappy; to make our service light or burdensome; a pleasure or a toil. say that his power lies in words and looks; in things so slight and insignificant that it is impossible to add and count ’em up: what then? the happiness he gives, is quite as great as if it cost a fortune." he felt the spirit's glance, and stopped. "what is the matter? " asked the ghost. "nothing particular," said scrooge. "something, i think? " the ghost insisted. "no," said scrooge, "no. i should like to be able to say a word or two to my clerk just now. that's all."
