Look at this hilarious video Greenpeace has on their site...

Video Here. 

I want to smack greenpeace even more now.

It's not like we have freaking disposable cameras for our video games, I still have my NES after close to 20 years, and I'm expecting to do the same with nearly every other console I have as well. Sorry, but to me, that doesn't warrant needing a Green console.

Of course, this is coming from teh same company that gave nintendo a 0 because they couldn't be bothered to do enough research to answer their own questions, and probably didn't even contact nintendo at all.

yeah......a giant wave of failed 360 i can see....but wiis and ps3....not so much

I like Greenpeace but this video is kind of lame.

Greenpeace needs to die. And look! They're making it easy for us!

Chaining themselves to gas pumps...Does anybody have a lighter? I find it quite ironic that a group that calls themselves "greenpeace" is one of the most extreme in the world.

Oh come on people. First, it's a pretty funny video, and secondly, why shouldn't they be able to point out the environmental detriment posed by the materials used in consoles?

Sure it's not the biggest hazard facing out planet, but that doesn't mean they can't point it out. Apple recently announced a series of changes to their manufacturing methods after meeting with environmental groups. So if Greenpeace can actually get any of the console manufacturers to change what they put into their consoles, why wouldn't that be a great thing?

^i used to like them till they lied about the big N

There are bigger problems in the world than putting certain materials in consoles. How about instead of saving a few trees, you feed some hungry kids in Africa, or Asia, or America for that matter! If they devoted their resources and energy into something a little more productive than disrupting the sale of gasoline then the world would be a much better place.

There are more reasons why I hate Greenpeace, but they escape me at the moment. Don't worry though, if this thread continues, I'll be back for more.

@stof: I am with environmental protection, but I do not appreciate being bluntly lied to and do not like FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt) mongering.

Although this one really takes the cake: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/06/01/AR2006060101884.html

Edit: BTW, my dislike is not based on that one article, since mistake do happen. But... they really need to...
