Greenpeace Guide to Greener Electronics :: Sony > MS > Nintendo
The sixth issue of the Guide has been expanded to include televisions and game consoles. Market leaders Microsoft, Nintendo, Philips and Sharp enter at the bottom of the ranking of environmental performance with Nintendo being the first company scoring zero out of a possible 10 points. Philips and Microsoft performed little better, scoring only 2 and 2.7, respectively. Sony Ericsson has taken over the top spot from Nokia while Samsung and Sony have surged ahead to now occupy second and third positions.
7.3/10 Sony – More products free of toxic PVC and improved reporting on recycling and takeback especially in the US.
2.7/10 Microsoft – New to the guide – long timeline for toxic chemicals elimination (2011) and poor takeback policy and practice.
0/10 Nintendo – New to the guide – first global brand to score zero across all criteria!
