[. . . ] Since all methods of conventional electricity generation have a negative effect on the environment (acidic and climateinfluencing emissions, radioactive waste, etc. Electronics equipment in offices consume an enormous amount of energy since they are often left running continuously. This product meets the requirements for the TCO'95 scheme which provides for international and environmental labelling of personal computers. the labelling scheme was developed as a joint effort by the TCO (The Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees) , Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation) and NUTEK (The National Board for Industrial and Technical Development in Sweden).
