This is made of the same type of corn that is used for making animal feed, ethanol, corn syrup, corn flakes, and other good products.

Pop Corn comes from a different variety of the crop. As well as sweet corn- what you eat from the can (which is a pity- Sweet Corn is Ripe here in Iowa).]]>Aug 11th 2009 12:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/Aug 6th 2009 9:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/Aug 6th 2009 10:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/Aug 6th 2009 9:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/Aug 6th 2009 10:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/

Ethanol production should stop also. It doesn't help the environment and if you care about carbon (which is not a pollutant), then ethanol has a bigger footprint.]]>Aug 6th 2009 10:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/Aug 6th 2009 10:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/Aug 6th 2009 10:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/

Now for some - it is a big deal that the price of food doubled. So who is the selfish ones here? The ones driving their bio-fuel cars with their pretentious attitudes - or the ones driving gasoline? You can't eat gas.

And I won't even bring up the increase in smog and decrease in air quality from Biofuels. ]]>Aug 6th 2009 10:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/Aug 6th 2009 10:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/
Agreed- Ethanol through soy or algae = a workable and proven solution. Ethanol through corn = more expensive and polutive than gasoline while driving up food costs. ]]>Aug 6th 2009 11:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/
Anyway, how is a phone 'made from corn' recycled, exactly? Had the corn been _used_ before? Is it, in fact, made of poop?

And - soy-based ink? That would be soy, the crop for which large swathes of rainforest are being merrily chopped down around the world?]]>Aug 6th 2009 2:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/
your comment and replies (sans-jacob) show me that not all tech people are moronic über-liberals that think anything with buzz words attached to it are good.

There is nothing environmentally friendly about this phone, recycling and, as you say before, corn based ethanol cause more pollution then they save.

If your worried about CO2 your better off not recycling.

If your worried about land-pollution (its not a buzz topic right now like it was in the early 90s so no one cares) then you can recycle.

Either way ethanol is a waste of time.]]>Aug 6th 2009 2:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/samsung-and-sprint-introduce-the-reclaim-a-cellphone-made-fro/
