    The CES 2011 in Las Vegas sure has helped pull the veil of a load of products that are green and eco-friendly for the world to see. It also has, at the same time, spawned a bunch of zombies last seen walking around in Vegas. The Electronics TakeBack Coalition is busy trying to draw attention to the problem with television manufacturers and their lack of responsibility when it comes to taking back TV sets, and part of the activist campaign, has had these TV-headed zombie-like people walking around, spreading awareness. CES is usually about showing of the sparkling new, and no one really spares a second though as to just how well should the good old device back home should be disposed off, especially when it comes to TV sets.


    It certainly would be great if the CES trade show spreads awareness regarding recycling and has TV manufacturers take back their old models instead of having people dump them in landfills. Till then, the zombies will just walk around.
