Apple is a green company
Apple fans usually know the fact that Apple is a company that knows about the effects of pollution and tries to do its best to lower the impact on nature made by toxic substances used in electronic products. Even the boxes of iPod Nano and Shuffle are specially created to have as less material as possible. In a document posted on Apple’s site Steve Jobs mentions some of the measures taken by Apple to use environmental friendly materials. Some aspects regard the fact that Apple has products that comply with EU’s RoHS directive which states restrictions on the use of cadmium, hexavalent chromium and brominated flame retardants compared to other electronic producers that still don’t comply with the directive. Apple also plans to transition its displays on the use of LED technology thus eliminating the use of Mercury and Arsenic, substances that are found in LCD displays.
