Kudos: Which Corporations Are Leading the Charge in Tackling the E-Waste Problem?

With fairly lax legislation in place regarding appropriate disposal of electronics in the U.S. some corporations have decided to take matters into their own hands to limit their share of the blame and help improve the environment and their corporate image.

Panasonic announced this week that they will be joining forces with a logistics company to manage the electronics company's e-waste in order to bring themselves inline with Europes e-waste regulations under the WEEE Directive.

Earlier this year Sharp, Toshiba, UPS, Dell and Staples likewise formed various partnerships to start taking responsible action against this growing, global concern. These organization are leading the charge for sustainability and deserve credit for that, however until these practices become standard for call companies there is still much work to be done before we can adequately reduce our global carbon footprint.
