Cell Phone Poll Missing Choice
Written by Jan Steinman

There's a tacit assumption in the current poll: "What do you do with your old cell phones?" That assumption is that everyone has one.
I have never purchased a cell phone, so I don't have a new one, let alone an old one that needs to be discarded!
I can understand that some people would just as soon cut off their right hand as give up their cell phone, but certainly, "I have never owned a cell phone," would have been the most "green" choice in the poll, no?
Perhaps the most radical way of "changing everything" is to become a non-consumer. Starve the beast!
Perhaps every such poll should have an "I opt out" choice.

And I just scrolled through the list of other polls... "Do you buy offset credits when you travel by air," is missing the poll choice, "I don't travel by air." Starve the beast! :::: Jan Steinman, Communication Steward, EcoReality ::::
