A Greener Apple wins a Webby and response from Steve Jobs
From CNet:
"Webby winners you probably missed"
"Environmental group Greenpeace won the activism Webby for its site, A Greener Apple. The site, which mimics Apple's Web site, is a plea to Apple to clean up its act when it comes to the toxic waste its products create. Greenpeace encourages readers to join its campaign asking Apple to remove toxic chemicals from its Macs and iPods. Recycling programs, they say, aren't enough to curb the growing amount of toxic chemicals piling up in landfills. Rather, Apple and other electronics manufacturers, they insist, need to focus on producing gadgets that don't contain the chemicals to begin with.
On Wednesday, Apple CEO Steve Jobs posted an open letter online outlining the efforts his company plans to make to reduce the number of toxic chemicals in its products.
