In this episode of pplpod, we dive deep into the world of sustainable tech to explore IEEE 1680, a vital family of IEEE sustainability standards dedicated to the assessment of the environmental performance of electronic products.

If you have ever wondered how the tech industry measures its ecological footprint, IEEE 1680 serves as the de facto standard for green computing at the desktop level. Join us as we break down the active standards within this framework, including:

• 1680.1: The standard covering the environmental and social responsibility assessment of computers, tablets, and monitors.
• 1680.2: The environmental assessment standard for imaging equipment, which includes printers, copiers, scanners, and fax machines.
