Apple has been criticized by some environmental organizations for not being a leader in removing toxic chemicals from its new products, and for not aggressively or properly recycling its old products. Upon investigating Apple’s current practices and progress towards these goals, I was surprised to learn that in many cases Apple is ahead of, or will soon be ahead of, most of its competitors in these areas. Whatever other improvements we need to make, it is certainly clear that we have failed to communicate the things that we are doing well.

애플의 환경친화적인 목표로 신제품부터 독성물질(?)을 제거한다는 계획인 것 같다

greener apple

Engadget에서도 나온 바로는 스티브잡스의 새로운 목표는 바로 친환경 기업을 필두로 하고 있다는 것! 아마도 올해안에 맥북프로(Macbook Pro, MBP) 또는 맥북(Macbook)에서 백라이트를 녹색으로 탈바꿈한 제품이 나올수도 있지 않을까?

Steve Jobs has responded to high profile accusations from environmental organizations that Apple is not taking the matter of the environment seriously enough, with a point by point article that highlights Apple's record and puts forward improvements for the future.

Steve highlights Apple's elimination of lead packed CRTs, compliance with strict European Union regulations regarding cadmium, hexavalent chromium and brominated flame retardants, the expectence that Apple will recycle 30% of the weight of all its products by 2010, and most interestingly, makes the announcement that Apple plans to "introduce our first Macs with LED backlight technology in 2007"

EU 환경기준치에 맞춘 카드늄, 크롬 등 2010년까지 모든 제품의 30%를 재활용 가능한 상품으로 만다는 것도 애플의 새로운 가이드 라인이라고 적어놨다.
그리고 2007년 안에 LED 백라이트 기술이 새로워 지는 첫번째 맥(Mac)이 소개될 것이라고도 언급하면서 맥유저, 애플신도들에게 큰 기대를 걸어주고 있다!

"LED MacBook Pro anyone?"
