Apple hates the environment? Condé Nast seems to think so, placing the company on its “10 Worst Corporate Polluters” list. Interesting, then, that Condé Nast accepted Apple’s cash, despite its hatred of the environment, to advertise the MacBook Air on pages two and three of March’s Portfolio magazine. That’s kinda odd, no?
And what exactly is Apple’s sin? Apparently there’s a chemical called phthalate that’s found in the company’s headphone cords. Phthalate is “thought” to cause birth defects. Oh, and Apple’s computer recycling program isn’t quite up to par, as determined by Portfolio.
Like, am I supposed to stop using my iMac now? What’s the point of that list, to create awareness? Look, I’m aware now; I don’t care.

not odd, it would be odd if they didn’t publish this just because they are publising mac ads.
They are creating awareness indeed, would you like them to publish a story each time the apple store is down. like every tech blog? that would be pointless, oh the irony.
