Eco Gadgets: Smarter Tech for a Cleaner Planet

 

An Eco Gadgets: A Greener, Better Way

Increasingly, people are in search of tech gadgets that are better for the planet. We call them eco-friendly gadgets — tools that are designed to be environmentally friendly.

We’re beginning to care where our phone or gadget comes from and what happens when we’re done with it, not just how powerful it is. Companies are making gadgets from recycled materials, building them with energy-saving features and packaging them in ways that are not harmful to nature.

Eco-friendly gadgets could range from solar powered chargers and headphones made of recycled materials, through to smart plugs, energy efficient bulbs, and laptops and phones that can be easily repaired. Opting for these can help reduce waste, pollution and energy use. And these days many websites allow you to filter by terms like “eco-friendly” or “sustainable,” making green shopping more convenient. These gadgets do more than fit into our lives — they also help save the planet. Minor decisions about how we buy tech can help make the world a cleaner, safer place.
