Cell Phones Tell Secrets From The Grave!

Recent research, from Regenersis, suggests that close to 100% of all cell phones disposed of contain information that could be brought back to life.

If not removed, all those pictures from Cancun… all the music you’ve downloaded… and yes, all those text messages to your mother can be retrieved! So next time you upgrade to the latest and greatest smart phone, make sure you dust off the manual for the old one and take the time to run through the steps to perform a complete reset of the unit.

On the other hand, you could also take it to a company, such as EPC, who will completely shred the unit to help protect any overlooked data within.

Earth Hour ’09 – Turn out. Take action.

With only a few days left, this year’s “Earth Hour” is gaining momentum and is well on its way to being the largest climate event in history.

At 8:30 pm, on Saturday, March 28, the twinkling lights of Broadway will shut down… the Acropolis, in Athens, will go dim… and Seattle’s Space Needle will fade into the darkness. All done to voice concern about climate change and to promote the need to find solutions to our environmental problems.

Visit Earth Hour’s website, spread the word, and let us know if you plan to be a part of this historic event!
