Greenpeace’s ranking of electronic manufacturers. And Nokia remains on top!

Nokia stays in 1st place with the same score of 7.5. Overall, Nokia does  best on the toxic chemicals criteria, followed by energy, and does  least well on e-waste issues.  Nokia scores very well on toxic chemical issues; all its new models  have been free of PVC since the end of 2005, and all new models of  mobile phones and accessories launched in 2010 are on track to be free  of brominated compounds, chlorinated flame retardants and antimony  trioxide, therefore achieving its goal to phase out these substances.

However, Nokia could do certainly better in getting this message across to the consumers.
