The new Lenovo LCD Thinkvision L244ox monitor was recently honored with Greenpeace’s highest rating for monitors in their Green Electronics Survey.

Lenovo credits part of its high eco-score with the monitors “Light Booster” technology which allows the monitor to perform its function on half the energy.

Since the Greenpeace Electronics Survey also looks at things like the use of hazardous chemical in electronics, the Lenovo monitor also received points for having a 33% reduction in mercury among other things. Greenpeace makes a special mention of the Lenovo L2440x wide monitor as a product leading the pack of eco-friendly technologies by being completely PVC and CFR, phthalate, antimony and beryllium-free. Additionally, almost 30% of it’s construction is from recycled plastic.

Lenovo is definitely proving itself to be a front-runner in the field of environmentally friendly electronics. Their Lenovo ThinkCentre 58/M58p topped the Environmentally Friendly Desktop Computer category as well.
