Hewlett-Packard = Hazardous Products

Greenpeace activists climbed to the top of HP's global headquarters and painted the message "Hazardous Products" in big, bold letters on the roof. The message, applied using non-toxic children's finger-paint, covered over 11,500 square ft. Instead of making progress on phasing out toxic chemicals from their products, HP continues making excuses. They are backtracking on their commitment to eliminate PVC plastic and brominated flame retardants (BFRs) from their products by the end of 2009.

PVCs have an insane half-life! Why do people compromise the future for stupid money?

[ptChimera]

That's the problem with all of you americans. Why shouldn't greenpeace do something about their beliefs? Is it really necessary to say things like "they should be arrested and murderes at the prison"? In my oppinion it's a shame that HP that is a well known trademark in the world, r not also the leader about conservative measures to fix problems like that one.

Crap....I cant imagine a world being controlled by this kind of guys.... let me see with all the activists out there, I imagine there would be no computers, food would cost 10 bucks per tomato, no one would be allowed to have pets, because Those P.E.T.A guys are very extreme in their beliefs, we woul have no fast food, Im glad thing are the way they are right now....

@CHASE06051990 Just cause they are riding dirty, doesn't mean they're not doing a good job. I own an HP Pavilion, so it is enlightening to know that people are out there demanding that products be manufactured with the best materials, not some cheap plastic that contains an addictive thats carcinogenic.

WOW. I'm sure its was "really green" for all you guys to jump out of that gas gulping Ford Econoline. If you really want to make a statement, then show people that you guys are serious about going green and walk or ride a damn bike. Hope HP goes after you pricks for property damage!!

Greenpeace has very useless ways of trying to help the environment.
