- RBW's eNutrition
submission for core77's Greener Gadgets competition wins honorable
mention: Design Brief:
You are what
you eat!
Even though you don't eat your cell phone or Mp3 player you should
still know what they're made from. The earth consumes 2.6 million
tons of electronic consumer waste in one year 1, not too healthy
of a diet.
With the clear disclosure of each gadget's material contents through
a standardized label provides the public with the knowledge to make
greener purchases. This documentation of electronics' nutrition
level encourages manufacturers to cut the fat and use healthier
manufacturing processes and materials, which helps the earth and
its habitants.
