Toshiba Recycles  E-mail

Mo' sustainability, mo' money. Toshiba is the latest computer manufacturer to register products with the Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool (EPEAT). Toshiba's ramped-up recycling program includes computer take-back at no cost to customers.

So?

So that makes them eligible for, among other things purchase by federal agencies under a new executive order that tells 'em to get greener or suffer the consequences.

Memo to industry captains of the world: if you want to sell to people who care about sustainability -- an ever-growing demographic -- you'd better get on the stick.
