Scores were determined based on data received by each mobile phone maker. Starting from the data of materials used, approximate age of disposable devices, energy efficiency, and ease of mobile phones for recycling. Each phone will get points if you have additional features such as cameras, or music player, so users no longer need to purchase a separate electronic device. In addition, the points are also given based on the ethical performance of the company's mobile phone maker, principles of environmental and labor standards in their supply network. "Consumers are now increasingly aware of social and environmental effects of the technology they purchase, and we believe in transparency of a product like this will help them make pililan a more 'green'," said Ronan Dunne, O2's chief executive told the Telegraph..
