How to be more eco-aware when buying new technology

When it comes to electronic gadgets, don’t just upgrade. Think smarter to help save the planet. Here are three top tips…

1 INVEST IN ECO-BRANDS

Before you buy, do your research and support the tech companies who have the strongest green credentials. The ones that reduce waste, have a strong sustainability record and use renewable energy. Their products might cost a little more but it’s worth it. 2 SMART CHOICES, LASTING IMPACT Quality tech made with care lasts longer, performs better, and is kinder to the planet. Choose products built to last, from brands that prioritise sustainability and craftsmanship. A pair of Bitmore True Wireless Earbuds (available to pre-order, p87) for example, will deliver great sound and last longer. Don’t just throw your old tech away. Lots of electrical brands now offer trade-ins or invite customers to bring in their old gadgets for recycling. The component parts and materials can be given a second-life, so make a positive impact where you can. 3 TRY TO RECYCLE
