🌱📱 This is brilliant.

There are likely millions of outdated phones sitting in drawers across the world. What if we could reimagine their purpose and turn them into tools that power smart cities and even protect our oceans?

This quote from the article really stuck with me:

“Innovation often begins not with something new, but with a new way of thinking about the old, re-imagining its role in shaping the future.”
– Huber Flores, Associate Professor of Pervasive Computing

It’s a reminder that sustainability and innovation can go hand-in-hand when we shift our perspective.
