TEAM GROUP Launches New Eco-friendly Net-zero Flash Drive: C175 ECO

[btarunr]

June 5th is recognized globally as World Environment Day. To support this year's World Environment Day campaign - Beat Plastic Pollution - and call on the public to take action against plastic pollution, Team Group is proud to announce our latest eco-friendly product - the C175 ECO Net-zero Flash Drive. Team Group has always been committed to researching, developing, and designing sustainable solutions. The C175 ECO Net-zero Flash Drive, therefore, revolves around the circular economy as its core principle and aims to reduce the use of new plastics, giving second life to waste plastics through recycling and reuse as we remain steadfast in our commitment to creating a sustainable future for planet Earth.

The C175 ECO Net-zero Flash Drive is made from 75% post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastics and is able to effectively reduce 69% of carbon emissions without compromising the durability of plastic materials, making it an effective storage solution with a smaller carbon footprint. Just 100,000 Net-zero Flash Drives is equivalent to saving nearly 203,000 sheets of A4 paper or eliminating the use of 9,200 PET water bottles (600ml), which means buying a C175 ECO Net-zero Flash Drive is the equivalent of saving 2 sheets of A4 paper or 0.1 PET bottles. Owning a C175 ECO Net-zero Flash Drive is a lifestyle choice, a commitment to energy conservation and carbon reduction, and a real step towards protecting our planet Earth. Let's beat plastic pollution together. The C175 ECO Net-zero Flash Drive features an ingenious concealed storage clip that enables users to plug the cap onto the back and prevent cap loss, which can also reduce pollution and safeguard our planet.



The color of our C175 ECO Net-zero Flash Drive was inspired by environmental protection and, therefore, naturally green. The "sage green" undertone symbolizes our polluted environment, while the bright "matcha green" evokes a budding leaf-like Team Group's spirit in launching the C175 ECO Net-zero Flash Drive. In a polluted environment, Team Group is taking action to manually remove carbon emissions and help our planet give rise to new life, adding a touch of green to our environment. Team Group is safeguarding the planet with real action as we continue to remain committed to researching, developing, and designing eco-friendly products. We hope that the C175 ECO Net-zero Flash Drive can raise awareness for environmental protection and give consumers an eco-friendly storage option. Join us as we take real action to protect our planet and way of life.

As much as I want to support environmental efforts, the PR on this is just too thick with "help the planet by buying our thumbdrive" rhetoric. It's really rather amazingly pathetic.

Please, if you really want to help save our planet, donate to a group doing efforts on that front, don't buy thumb drives to get there.

On the other hand if you are already going to buy a lame thumbdrive, and want it eco friendly, you could do worse. But yeah, this is no substitute for real effort or donations.

and it's been proven time and time again that 90% of these "green plastic" claims are BS

-Would have better luck pushing the unique aesthetic(s) the supposed PCR plastics create.
I don't know quite why, but I actually like the color and pattern of the material choice.

To my colorblind eyes, on an improperly calibrated VA LCD, it looks like a 'pastel gray' with speckling/texturing.
Reminds me of some electronics post-beige-era but pre-everything-black-era.

(edit:
Yeah, that doesn't look ANYTHING like 'sage' or 'green' and very much not 'sage green'.
I usually have problems w/ perceiving Red, and over-perceive Blue. Maybe, it's my monitor's settings, but I'm confused )

There is a lot of hypocrisy in the Environmental Movement. A great deal on both sides of the line.

Green plastic and other aspects are just "token words" to be used by people to make the sheeple feel good about themselves as they feel that " they be doing their part saving the environment".

It took a YouTube video in a water jet cutting shop for me to realize why I like the appearance.
