Apple's Going Greener

Tuesday, October 21, 2008

I picked this story up of the TUAW site, the icon on the system preference for Energy Saver has changed from an incandescent bulb to a CFL, very cool. This change is only on the new MacBook's & MacBook Pro's. I wonder if it will be coming through to the rest of Apple's line up?

Apple is really going green. The latest line of MacBook's & MacBook Pro's have an EPEAT Gold (Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool) rating. The glass and aluminium make them highly desirable to recyclers, making them less likely to end up in land fills, and less likely to be dumped on "third world" nations as cheap PC's, and not leaving the poorer nation to deal with electronic waste.
