From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Sony Ericsson is giving heavy texters and Microsoft Mobile Office users the option to go green when they make their next mobile phone purchase.

The mobile phone manufacturer launched the Sony Ericsson Aspen on February 2 hoping the device would appeal to eco-friendly business users who want a clear conscience.

"Sony Ericsson Aspen ^TM is the business phone with a conscience, perfect for any consumer or company who want to make a green choice in their daily work life," said Quentin Cordier, Global Marketing Manager, Sony Ericsson.

"An affordable GreenHeart phone with the latest version of Windows Phone, the Sony Ericsson Aspen has a rich user interface and powerful productivity tools. But it's not all about work, stay in touch with the fun parts of life with Media Browser and PlayNow, with simple access to social networks and quick and easy access to media files. Find the fun with a-GPS, Google Maps and snap pictures with the 3.2megapixel camera."

The handset will be available in selected markets in the second quarter of 2010.
