“As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words but to live by them.”

Our very best wishes to all!

Fresh Rocket and ChangeSurvive announce partnership with PlantMyPhone to recycle old cell phones … into new trees

Plant My Phone logo Have a used cell phone that’s collecting dust? Turn your old phone into new trees!

Fresh Rocket will make sure that your old phone is responsibly recycled through the PlantMyPhone program. The process ensures that hazardous chemicals like cadmium, lead and mercury don’t wind up in our landfills … and then into our soil and the water we drink and air we breathe. Proceeds from the recycled materials are then used to support the United Nations Environment Programme “Plant for the Planet: Billion Tree Campaign.”

These efforts are anchored by ChangeSurvive.com, as well as Twitter updates and a very active Facebook page.

On Wednesday, we also released an original video, The Fable of the Third Planet. Written Read More  »
