Microsoft is lagging far behind other IT companies when it comes to helping save the environment. It ranks at the bottom of Greenpeace's Cool IT Challenge, which scores how much IT companies are doing to address climate change. IT companies can help cut global greenhouse gas emissions by as much as 15 percent by 2020. Greenpeace’s Challenge uses scorecards to evaluate a dozen major IT companies in five areas: Public Climate Speech, Political Advocacy, Climate Solutions, Reducing Companies’ Own Emissions Target, and Renewable Energy Use. In addition to producing the technology necessary for the implementation of climate solutions and reducing their company’s carbon footprint, the leaders of these powerful companies can use their influence to impact key political leaders and call for a strong agreement at the Climate Change Negotiations in Copenhagen this December. Greenpeace will update Cool IT regularly and release the next assessment in August/September.

And all this time I was wishing for a money tree...

Quote from article:
"Microsoft is said to have pulled some $16 billion from its Orifice last year..."

Are they putting their money where their mouth is? I wouldn't put that anywhere near my mouth....

Hopefully that's not a new Microsoft product.....well at least the titles are starting to reflect where they get some of these programs from.

By the way....love the Simpsons reference.

they also want to slice a pie in a cloud computing environment. WebEx is just another dumb but pricey services that they want to bundle with their bunch of already flooded network equipment.
