EPEAT
(Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool) A ranking of the green attributes of computer equipment. The ranking is based on criteria such as the device's power management capabilities, the amount of hazardous material it contains, the amount of recyclable materials used and how easily the unit can be disassembled when it reaches end of life. Bronze, Silver and Gold ratings are awarded if the device meets all required criteria and a certain percentage of optional criteria. For more information, visit www.epeat.net.
