In June 2010, Greenpeace invited 20 companies to submit their greenest products across 7 categories that would be on the market by November 2010. These included monitors, desktops, notebooks, netbooks, mobile phones, smartphones, and televisions. Greenpeace received 42 products from 18 companies.

Apple and Philips declined to participate, though Greenpeace did assess a product from each company; Apple Macbook Pro and Philips' Econova television.

The highest scoring products are:

• Desktops: HP Compaq 6005 Pro Ultra-slim (6.06 points)
