Rainforest Connection (RFCx) has just launched a Kickstarter campaign that aims to protect some of the world’s most endangered rain forests using recycled smartphones. Each device monitors rainforest activity in real-time and can detect the sounds of illegal logging or poaching in a radius of up to one kilometer (0.6 miles). This allows responders on the ground to intervene immediately. In addition to support via the Kickstarter, RFCx is also gratefully accepting donations of unwanted smartphones.
