@CES 2008 - Tod Arbogast, Dell’s Director of Sustainability
Earlier in the show, I sat in on a panel with Tod Arbogast and his counterparts at HP, Sony, and several other companies. It’s been invigorating and humbling to see these multi-national corporations cooperate on recycling and lifecycle design, even while they’re at each other’s throats in the marketplace. Tod is personally passionate about making the earth a better place to live, and he’s offered to help us guys at EcoGeek set up a round table discussion with some of his colleagues.
I caught up with him at the Dell ReGeneration booth and he gave us a short video interview… I especially liked his tips for employees who want to help their bosses go Green.

Dell does keep to that commitment that Tod talks about. We work with Tod and his team everyday to help Dell Customers donate their used equipment to benefit people with special needs across our nation and internationally. And Dell, as we do, passionately shares the view of product stewardship to make sure that used computers do not go to waste, and indeed also properly disposed of. And also believe in life cycle management. There are solutions at every stage along the path of design to end of life. And we are proudly part of that story.
