How Green is Your Computer?

If you're looking to upgrade or replace your computer and want to make sure to get an environmentally conscious one, or you're just curious about how your current pc rates on the green scale, take a look at GreenPeace's report on the 18 top producers of computers, mobile phones, TVs, and game consoles. Currently Nokia is on top due to their voluntary take-back program, and Nintendo is at the bottom. Greenpeace ranks the companies based on their policies regarding toxic chemicals, recycling, and climate change. Specifically, the group looks at how each company is working to eliminate hazardous substances in their products, taking back and recycling their products once they become obsolete, and reducing the climate impacts of their operations and products. The rankings are updated every 3 months, with the latest version published in late November.
