How Green is your IT? Ask GreenPeace!

Posted by: Albee In: Green IT|News Items

GreenPeace apparently keeps track of how green tech companies are in their annual review.

Their site lists the following criteria:

“The ranking criteria reflect the demands of the Toxic Tech campaign to the electronics companies. Our three demands are that companies should:

* clean up their products by eliminating hazardous substances;
* takeback and recycle their products responsibly once they become obsolete.
* Reduce the climate impacts of their operations and products.”

Here’s the list – there are a few surprises:

About This Site

Having spent many years doing IT for non-profits (and small businesses) I have my finger on the pulse of cheap IT - what's the most powerful and cost-effective use of technology for cash-strapped organizations? That is the question I am constantly trying to answer.

I created this site as a place to post the various geeky tidbits and strange happenings that I come across in my daily traversing of the web, with a focus on (b)leeding-edge IT for non-profits and small businesses.

My hope is that you, the reader, will find some humor, entertainment, usefulness or irritation at what you find here. If so, you are my intended audience.
