New Macbook Pro Falls Short of Steve Jobs’ Green Promise
In October, Steve Jobs issued this statement in response to Greenpeace’s call to stop using toxic PVC plastic and brominated flame retardants:
Last year we announced the unprecedented goal of eliminating polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and brominated flame retardants (BFRs) from Apple products by the end of 2008. I’m proud to report that all of Apple’s new product designs are on track to meet our 2008 year-end goal.
As it turns out, Macworld came around and this promise has been broken. And Greenpeace is pissed.
