We never seem to think beyond our next purchase and in many respects, given how callous we are towards the disposable nature of consumer goods this means that we are somewhat blinded to the true cost of the goods we buy. We do not see the volume of toxic gases produced, the number of trees that had to be cut down, or the number of dangerous chemicals released into our delicate and long suffering environment. Because of this reluctance to take personal responsibility, this means that the greatly heralded arrival of items such as a Solar Powered Battery Charger rings a little hollow.

There will be readers who will remain cynical about the role that their usage of various appliances plays in relation to the infliction of damage to the environment, especially given how innocuous and innocent they seem. Some of us will grudgingly admit and concede a small measure of culpability, acknowledging the fact that the actual manufacturing process of the appliances and electronic devices is a major source of pollution. However, the polluting effects of our devices does not end there, indeed every time we power or charge them up, is yet another slap in the face for Mother Nature. Whether it is due to electrical batteries which are non bio-degradable, or the electricity we derive from our main power supply which in turn is created using massively polluting fossil fuels: rest assured, it is taking its toll on our planet.

Electrical batteries are a nightmare to dispose of, there really is no real way to dispose of them cleanly, efficiently and above all else: safely. Cost rules supreme when it comes to disposal of these units, and so the most cost effective solution is to dump them in landfill sites and simply bury more rubbish on top of them. This would not be such a big issue if the components were actually biodegradable…but they aren’t and so unless we can wait around a century for them to finally break down, we have a real problem on our hands. We can’t burn or melt the components because that would create an unacceptably high level of pollution as well as potentially and actually lethal gases which would pose a significant risk to the personnel involved in the incineration process.

It is not all doom and gloom however, for there is a new solution at hand: solar powered battery charger. Given that these are designed to be rechargeable, this means that their lifespan is far greater than their traditional counterparts. This does not mean that they are infinite resources, although there is ongoing research designed to further finesse the longevity of these products.
