Five Firms Earn Asset Disposal Certification

Five IT companies have earned a certification for their environmentally friendly asset disposal processes. The Green Recycling and Asset Disposal Enterprise (GRADE) certification, from IDC, is based on 34 IT asset disposal-related functions and tasks and Dell, HP and IBM are among the first five companies to receive the certification.

All highly commendable, but in the same way that I have reservations about IT companies advising clients on Greening their enterprises (which needs a broad holistic approach) I also have reservations about a IT market research firm advising IT companies on how to be more Green.
