Towers of eco madness with Oxo
We are excited by the scope for jumping on the green bandwagon. After all, if the IT industry can say the words "green datacentre" with a straight face, it can claim green credentials for more or less anything.
The scope for innovation has obviously fired the imagination of someone involved in materials science.
"I have just had a magazine delivered in a plastic wrapper that has printed on it: 'This polythene is oxo-degradable'," says Chris Harris at IBS-STL. "So is there a recycling facility somewhere with operators stirring polythene wrappers into bubbling vats of Oxo gravy?"
Any more silly green bandwagon jumpers who deserve exposure will get it in this column, provided you help by nominating them.
