Zeina Al-Hajj, Greenpeace's International Toxic Campaign co-ordinator has said "... whether or not it's a toy, we do not want these chemicals in our products."
Ms Al-Hajj, why don't you just exercise your right not to buy them and f*** off and leave the rest of us alone?
Jumping H F***. Sure, there's nasty stuff in most electronic equipment, but the total volume is negligible, surely? How many grams of nasty stuff is in the average home?

"How many grams of nasty stuff is in the average home?"
In the case of Al-Hajj, several stones, one presumes...
considering that "According to the United Nations Environment Programme 50 tonnes of hazardous e-waste is generated every year."
76 million PCs were sold in Q4 2007. That's 300 million PCs globally. 6 millions Wiis were sold in Japan alone last year.

Does he have any suggestions on how to dope semiconductors without these materials? What a twat!
"Our products"? Is he making the bloody things? Seems he should follow his own advice.
Greenpeace have come up with a Wicker Wii.
It has a paddle , shaped like a cup and some environmentally strong string with a [sustainable forest] wooden ball attached to the string.
The object is to get the ball into the cup.
Sony and Nintendo are said to be very worried by this new turn of events and fear sales of Playstations and Wii may collapse under the wave of kids now switching to Cup an' Ball.
"Wait until they see our new 'Hoop an' Stick' and 'Spinnin' Top' games we have got planned for the Fall.
kids will never go back to consoles now"
