Greenpeace: Microsoft and Nintendo companies worst for the environment?

@ SeriousWB

Isn't this really old?

Thanks for repeating myself.

That's why I posted to off topic.

Also, wasn't the Nintendo score due to them not giving Greenpeace that information so they were just given and advertised to be 0?

"Nintendo has once again landed at the bottom of Greenpeace's list of tech manufacturers when it comes to eco-friendly practices.

Nintendo scored .3 out of 10 in the March version of Greenpeace's Guide to Greener Electronics, which ranks companies in categories such as precautionary principle, timeline for PVC phaseout, and amounts recycled.

The only category in which Nintendo did not score the lowest ranking of "Bad" was chemicals management, in which it ranked "Partially Bad."

Having more people employed per generated profit just seems like bad business.

IMO this is a company's responsibility. You can do more by employing more people as well as you're helping the global community. Sony is a highly competitive company, with many competitors for many different market segments.

Microsoft mainly relies on its desktop OS monopoly ever since they bought the Quick and Dirty OS CP/M ripp-off, renamed MSDOS. Nintendo of course only competes in gaming, I do think they should hire more people considering their solid economics.
