2010 CES Electronics Show Going Green
The 2010 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) is running from January 7th – 10th. The show is taking steps to make sure almost every part is as eco-friendly as possible.
Some of the main highlights of how they are going green include:
- Green Exhibits and Conference: CES will be feature a huge exhibit of green products called Sustainable Planet.
- Environmental Investments: Investing more than $100,000 to local environmental groups within Las Vegas.
- Carbon Neutral Air Travel: They are using EarthEra to offset all air travel to the conference.
- Eco-friendly Booths: The show is offering an eco-friendly package to participants that features recycled and environmentally friendly materials for the display.
- Recycling: Making recycling available throughout the conference, using recycled products where available and making sure to recycle over 50% of all waste generated from the show.
There are many more things the show is doing to be eco-friendly and it’s a step that more shows and conferences should be taking to lessen their environmental impact.
Every year CNet does a ‘Best of’ awards in several categories including Green Tech. I will keep everybody updated with the results.

I would love to be able to attend this. Eco friendly / green products are great sellers on eBay and Amazon. I am in Atlanta, and although we get lots of trade shows, I don’ think this one comes here.
Wow, EarthEra and similar companies, certainly have a very interesting business model. I wish we could see more of the stimulus funds going towards projects like this that could help offset some of our many wasteful habits, while also providing important jobs…
