Cradle to Grave: Lifecycle of an iPhone

For this project I had to choose a piece of technology or an appliance and research it's lifecycle from the gathering of the materials to the day it is either thrown out or recycled. The item I chose to research is an iPhone and I took my information and turned it into an infographic of data.

Loads of research and data

I had to research everything from the different types of materials to their masses and where they are collected from to the average salaries of workers and iPhone purchases by outlet and how much of each material is recovered for reuse in making new iPhones by recycling. I took all of this info and found a way to turn it into some intriguing graphics that catch the eye.
