Nintendo still bottom of Greenpeace’s Guide to Greener Electronics

Nintendo is apparently too busy to take little things like environmental justice too seriously. According to GameDaily, Greenpeace has NIntendo listed at the very bottom of the Guide to Greener Electronics, a listing of how well corporations comply with industry-relevant environmental practices such as providing timelines for PVC and BFR phaseouts and the institution of recycling programs. Last November, the company was the first in the world to score an absolute zero, and this week, Greenpeace reports a tiny, marginal improvement to .3/10.

In case you were wondering how the other members of the “big three” fared, Sony is the reigning champion at 7.3/10, and Microsoft has seen something of an improvement from November’s report, moving up from 2.7/10 to 4.7/10. I think it’s safe to say that Nintendo has quite a bit of catching up to do in this department.
