The State Of Green Gadgets

From the ‘articles we enjoyed’ file comes a CBC online piece on green gadgets - where the environment and technology are meeting. We particularly enjoyed the few sentences dedicated to Sharp’s new Kameyama No. 2 television factory just outside Osaka, Japan.

It sports the largest roof-based solar panel farm on the planet, the building’s windows are covered with energy-harvesting solar glass panels, and 100 per cent of the plant’s waste water is recycled. Sharp claims that it is the most environmentally friendly television factory in the world.
