Here’s a look at a video produced by Greenpeace, which questions whether Steve Jobs is really delivering the ‘greener Apple’ he promised earlier in the year. Scientific tests, arranged by Greenpeace, reveal that Apple's iPhone contains hazardous chemicals. The tests uncovered several hazardous substances like Bromine and Phthalates, some of which have already been eliminated by other mobile phone makers like Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Motorola.
Greenpeace seems to be really cracking down on Apple, with this latest publicity coming on the back of a recent survey of electronics companies where Apple got low marks for eco-friendly policies and ranked fourth from the bottom, ahead of only Acer, Motorola, and Lenovo.
