Climate counts.....
How about other things to worry about...

1) How about gum in foil and plastic blister packs (Does anyone actually recycle the package, and for something that people are likely to throw away, it should be made out of a paper wrapper)
2) Teflon in windshield washer fluid
3) The crazy plastic used to enclose most SD cards as part of the retail package (It's like 20x more plastic in the package than it takes to make the SD card)

Just to name a few things that are A) utterly disposable, and B) are being generated in much higher volumes than anything Apple is producing.

Just a thought, but most environmental groups are sadly more about stunts than about anything useful.
