Don't let Apple hog the green!

Have you heard the good news?

When you told Apple that you wished its products came in green - they listened. Your voice turned Apple into a green IT industry leader - and we wanted to say thank you! Because not only has Apple dropped the worst toxic chemicals from its products - but the company itself is making some bold green moves!

At the beginning of October Apple stormed out of the US Chamber of Commerce - a lobby group that has been using its funds to oppose climate change legislation.

Now we need your help to push the rest of the IT industry to follow in Apple's footsteps - we can't let Steve hog all the green.

Companies like Google, Microsoft, and IBM have a lot of green potential - they just need to start living up to it. They need to start showing some climate leadership and the first thing they could do is like Apple speak out against the climate stance of the US Chamber of Commerce.

Sign the petition that asks them to call the US Chamber of Commerce on its anti-climate legislation position or leave the Chamber in protest as Apple has already done.

Apple's green attitude shows that you can turn IT companies into leaders - now we need to turn the rest of the IT industry into climate leaders.
