Green Gadgets part two

Posted on February 28, 2009 by mastadonzq

Here are some good examples of green design done right vs. completely misguided.

A computer made out of cardboard. It’s true cardboard is easily recyclable but how long can a cardboard computer last? I certainly wouldn’t buy a computer that can be turned into mush by water.

Cardboardcase:
