One of the best quotes I remember came form Yves Behar, when he said “put the sexy back in green.” “.. sustainability should be “the sexiest tool in the designer’s toolbox.”
Whatever companies like HP and Panasonic may say, they have an awful long way to go in producing products that are built to fully accommodate sustainable manufacturing of electronic goods. We are just at the beginning, but if things are to progress quickly then I think Japan will lead the way.
