Unlike the Electronics Guide described above, which focuses on overall corporate policies and practice, this survey evaluates the products that the manufacturers themselves consider to be their greenest.<\/p>\n<p>The first edition revealed no products that could claim the title of a truly green product, with only a few scores barely reaching a total score of 5 out of 10. In 2008, we invited the companies to submit their greenest models again, to find out if new product line-ups showed improved environmental performances, and to once again try to find the greenest electronic products on the market.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Num. pages:<\/strong> 28<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The results of the Green Electronics Survey
