Fido promotes Moto Renew at Green Living Show

If you make your way to the Green Living Show in Toronto this weekend, not only will you be amazed to see how many companies are doing green initiatives… but you’ll also be able to get your hands on the recently launch uber green Moto W233 Renew.

This is the phone that’s Carbon Free and made with recycled water bottles. To entice people over to the booth they were asked to fill out a sheet and give all your personal info (most likely to be contacted by a Fido dealer to sell you on a new phone), then you got to pick a box from the wall of boxes to get a chance to win a water bottle or a coupon for $50 off a Fido product.

In case you are touched by this story and want to do good for the environment, the prices for the Renew are: $0 on 2-year agreement and $65 Regular price / Prepaid

The Moto W233 Renew weighs in at 83 grams and has overall dimensions of 110.9 x 14.7 x 45mm, comes with music player (dedicated music key) with 2GB of removable memory, 2.5 mm earphone jack, a screen size of 1.6″ (128 x128 resolution).fidogreenshowimage2

    1. wow, what a load of BS!

      ‘carbon free’ phone, just how exactly is this calculated & verified????

      even worse, they are giving away water bottles in this promotion?? aren’t these the same water bottles that toronto hippy mayor miller wants to ban because they take up so much space in landfills?

      classic example of a fake/lame attempt by a company trying to jump on the green bandwagon. i only hope consumers are bright enough to see through these weak attempts

    2. I agree, what a joke. If fido actually cared about the environment they would make all their phones from recycled plastic. And only 25% recycle? Please, the technology is out there, a greater percentage of post-consumer waste can be utilized.

    3. The phone has gone through a certification process. The Motorola info tells you what CarbonFree means. It involves a third-party product life-cycle assessment of the entire carbon footprint. The process is detailed there.
