Technology companies must pay special attention to caring for the environment. And to remind you of this important role, the environmental NGO Greenpeace usually publishes annually a guide to know the valuations that it makes of the great technologies of the world: Google, Amazon, Microsoft or Apple. And in this sense, in this version of 2017, Greenpeace has put the Cupertino team on the podium drawer, raising it to second place.
The guide that details brand by brand what is the valuation by section and the final grade that each company achieves, has considered in this edition that Apple has improved a lot, especially in the direction that Apple is taking in resorting and supplying itself through energy renewable. An example would be your new Apple Park.
Now, if Apple is managing to advance in this regard, why not go up to first place and the difference from the winner? First of all we will tell you that Fairphone is the company that rises to the top of the ranking. And the reason is very simple: those of Cupertino do not want facilitate the user to repair the equipment himself; they prefer all of this to take place in their stores. Therefore, repairing equipment on the block is generally not easy. In addition, there are cases in which Apple prefers not to repair and exchange a defective computer for a new one. And in this regard, Fairphone, with its modular mobile, makes repairs easier and allows replacement of faulty parts.
On the other hand, in the ranking are brands such as Dell (third position), as well as HP (Hewlett Packard). While Fairphone and Apple get an overall grade of B and B-, respectively, Dell and HP just hit the approved (C +). All other companies (Google, Amazon or Microsoft) fail in this subject.
