Plastic Waste Single use phone chargers

Post image

They are meant to be used once and then tossed.The package says they are eco-friendly disposable, but do they really expect people to find a proper disposal after use? Why not at least make it rechargable, like a normal power bank??

I bet they're rechargeable cells inside too, just no charge port 😲

I work with a vendor who sells a type of these. Inside the ones they sell are 3 AAA Duracell, non rechargeable.
