Organization such as Greenpeace are going to great lengths to call attention to this global problem. They are encouraging electronics manufacturers to eliminate toxic materials from the products they sell. They also encourage manufacturers to provide incentives for their customers to properly recycle electronics devices when they are through with them. In its annual “Guide to Greener Electronics,” Greenpeace ranks technology companies on their level of “green-ness” based on the each company’s manufacturing and recycling practices. For example, currently Nokia is ranked greenest due to its comprehensive voluntary take-back programs and recycling practices. Samsung is number two because it removed PVC from its LCD displays, BFR from some of its cell phones, and halogen from its chips and semiconductors. While Nokia and Samsung earned high points from Greenpeace, no company is currently ranked as begin 100 percent green, and most are listed in the red with a lot of improvements still needed.
