Background
Those who define products and design their electronics need to be current in green technology, because today's customers are asking for products designed with the environment in mind. Green design has become good business.
We call green design "ResourceSmart" because the challenge is not just about saving power. ResourceSmart design means products that last longer, consume less power, and use materials that are safe and renewable.
