Following its quarterly Guide to Greener Electronics, Greenpeace invited electronics manufacturers to submit their most environmentally friendly products\/models for evaluation in 2008. The survey, titled \"Green Electronic\u2026The search continues,\" identified 15 participating manufacturers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Acer, Dell, Fujitsu Siemens, Hewlett Packard, Lenovo, LG Electronics, Motorola, Nokia, Panasonic, RIM\/Blackberry, Sharp, Samsung, Sony, Sony Ericsson, Toshiba.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 15 participating manufacturers submitted a total of 50 products to Greenpeace for evaluation. The evaluation criteria were divided into four main categories:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1. Use of hazardous chemical substances: Hazardous substances include PVC, brominated flame retardants (BRFs), antimony, phthalates, beryllium, and other substances that are harmful to human health or the environment;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. Product power consumption: Rated according to Energy Star and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency standards;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3. Product lifecycle: This includes the percentage of recycled plastics used and the recyclability rate;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
4. Data Availability: Data on energy consumption from product manufacturing to sales can be used as an evaluation criterion, as can research and development of designs that reduce environmental harm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The main findings of the investigation report are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
The electronics manufacturers participating in the evaluation use less PVC and hazardous chemicals.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
LED displays (liquid crystal displays) are becoming increasingly popular because they consume less energy and do not contain mercury.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Larger products such as televisions and monitors are using more recycled plastics. However, most mobile phones, desktop computers, and laptops still need to increase their use of recycled plastics.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Except for a few products that do not yet meet the latest Energy Star requirements, most manufacturers have quickly adopted and complied with the new Energy Star specifications.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Most manufacturers can trace the energy resources consumed in the production process of their products, but there are no international standards to serve as a benchmark for comparison.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Top Performing Electronic Product:<\/strong> The Lenovo L244 0x wide screen is completely free of PVC plastic and brominated flame retardants (BFRs), as well as phthalates, antimony, and beryllium. Furthermore, nearly 30% of its plastic components are made from recycled plastics, and its LED-backlit display is mercury-free.<\/br> Below are the ratings for the most environmentally friendly electronic products in each category:<\/br> Desktop Computers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
