As a Mac user, I was disppointed to read in yesterday's Independent
that Greenpeace has rated Apple the worst among major electronics
firms for its environmental policies. In a survey of 14 major
companies, the manufacturer of the Mac, the Powerbook, and the iPod
was put bottom of the list for its policies on the elimination of
toxic substances and recycling. Surprisingly, the first place on the
list was the Chinese PC maker Lenovo, which displaced Nokia.
