Muster up an old phone for good of planet
Snowy Monaro Regional Council is proud to announce its support of the MobileMuster Go for Zero nationwide challenge.
MobileMuster has now been operating for 23 years and since the program began, more than 1500 tonnes of mobile phone and accessories have been collected and recycled.
This March, all residents are being encouraged to dig through their drawers, search under the bed and rifle through that old box in the garage. There are more than five million broken old phones gathering dust across Australia, and with free drop-off stations across the Snowy Monaro now is the time to ditch your old dud and help the planet too.
It needs to talk to you.

In this valley you are only an hour from your countryâs federal parliament. But the political decisions here began 120,000 years ago. Evidence of the culture is all about you as you walk through this national park â rock art, scar trees, stone arrangements, tools. It is so tempting to take a souvenir but please stay your hand. Those specimens have yet to be fully studied and we need them to explain and defend our culture.
We need our cultural objects in situ, not on your mantelpiece only to be turfed out by your grandkids when you die.
