Microsoft and Earth Week

CoverImageI have to say I’ve been impressed with Microsoft’s recent efforts to green up. All the cafeterias have compostable dining ware now – it’s quite a blast to dump everything on my tray into a single receptacle labeled “Compost.”

Check out TechNet magazine’s “Going Green” issue.

Also, Microsoft’s Environment site has been updated for Earth Week. The revisions reflect the following content and technology updates:

Steve Ballmer has committed Microsoft to reduce its corporate carbon footprint by 30% by 2012. I hope to see solar panels and green roofs on campus buildings by then!

Earthday is heavily promoted in Canada. Especially in Toronto, I see earthday signs everywhere.
