Ce vs ça

In the sentence 'Il semblerait que, de nos jours, personne ne soit capable de se passer de son portable, et ce, même pendant la nuit' why is 'ce' used rather than 'ça' ?

Bonjour Tom,

The usage of 'et ça' is rather colloquial, although very common in French. It should be accepted as a correct answer though. 

I hope this is helpful.

Bonne journée !
