The purpose of this research was to demonstrate how the use and market of technology consumption, in the case of Smartphones, have a significant participation in the impact of the carbon footprint, based on factors of common use, performance, deterioration and manufacturing, oriented to the average use of a common inhabitant of the city of Bogotá. This behavior is part of the responsibility that each person who lives in the city has with the environment and its future.
