Greenpeace updates Guide to Greener Electronics at CES 2010

Greenpeace has updated the latest Guide to Greener Electronics at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas. The guide ranks the 18 top manufacturers of personal computers, mobile phones, TVs and games consoles according to their policies on toxic chemicals, recycling and climate change. Apple, Sony Ericsson and Nokia lead the way for product ranges free of the worst hazardous substances with HP following their lead. Samsung, Dell, Lenovo and LGE pick up penalty points in the Guide for failing to follow through on a promised phase-out of toxics in their products.

The guide is updated every few months. The current edition was published on January 7, 2010. Additional details are available from Greenpeace’s website.
