Acer Aspire Vero Notebooks Help You Make Every Day Earth Day

April 22nd is Earth Day, which marks the 52nd anniversary of the birth of the modern environmental movement. If you’re of the “reduce, reuse, and recycle” mindset (as I hope you are), and you’re in the market for a new laptop, you might want to look at the Acer Aspire Vero notebook line. The Aspire Vero uses 30% post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastics in its chassis, 50% PCR plastics in its keyboard caps, comes in 100% recyclable packaging, and is held together with standard screws for easy disassembly when it’s time for repairs, upgrades, and eventual recycling.

The Aspire Vero meets a significant list of environmental criteria, and it is EPEAT Silver certified. Along with the recycled materials it uses and the 21% savings in C02 emissions it provides, there is no paint used on the notebook’s chassis surface. On top of that, Acer’s VeroSense software allows you to select a usage mode optimized for energy efficiency and battery life.
