Baloney,

IBM has been the worst polluter. It has polluted for miles the aquifers in E. Fishkill, NY and on, and on....

The locals know...People is Hillside Lake still vent their lawns with underground pipes and the water is undrinkable.

It sounds like IBM's "marketing" of its greenness is working, but it's baloney.

I'm going to buy from these companies when possible. My tiny way of supporting their efforts.

The World's Greenest Companies

a snipett:

IBM, in the No. 1 spot on the U.S. list, has been measuring, managing, and voluntarily reporting on its environmental impact for more than 20 years. It says it has conserved 5.4 million kilowatt-hours of elec-tricity over that time, cutting its CO₂ emissions and saving the company more than $400 million in the process. Energy efficiency and conservation is a “business no-brainer,” says Wayne Balta, a vice presi-dent who oversees sustainability at IBM. But the company has extended its eco-savvy far beyond its own operations—for instance, providing software that helps customers identify energy-saving efficien-cies at an office campus.
