EPEAT director defends Greenpeace Ranking

Confusion is mounting over the environmental credentials of Apple's portfolio after research from the US Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool (EPEAT)
appeared to contradict recent claims from Greenpeace that the company's
products are some of the most environmentally damaging on the market.

However, Scot Case, marketing director at EPEAT, insisted there was no
contradiction between the two ranking systems' findings and that
neither could be used to prove the inaccuracy of the other. "My initial
reaction was that comparing the two systems was like comparing apples
and oranges, but on closer inspection it is more like comparing apples
and cows," he said. [+]


Last week, the same day Apple presented the iPhone, Greenpeace posted a hilarious video on YouTube asking for a Green iPod. [+]
