No one expected that Steve Balmer is going to have an easy job. Well, everybody talks about how hard it will be for him with Vista not beeing as good and Explorer just catching up on Firefox, Apple getting more popular. The challenges are numerous. And environment is one of them.
Because (suprise suprise to some non-gamers) Microsoft does not only produce software but also hardware. Mouses, keyboards, Zune, XBox and the list is growing. This hardware still contains hazardous chemicals like brominated flame retardants and PVC. And can be seen on the dumpsites, like the one in Accra, Ghana.
So Steve has to rise up to this challenge and clean up Microsoft's act. Ensure that it's products are free of hazardous chemicals and take responsibility for the end of life. This means collection and responsible recycling so they do not end up beeing exported as waste to countries like Ghana. So Steve, do we want to see more action!
