More about the Acer Aspire Vero – Green Laptop
More than just a stylish computer, the Acer Aspire Vero (AV15-51) is a tangible manifestation of Acer’s commitment to more sustainable operations. Its chassis is composed of 30% PCR plastic, cutting CO2 emissions by 21% [[1]]for the production of that part. The keycaps also contain 50% PCR plastic, and the Aspire Vero’s award-winning 100% recyclable packaging can be repurposed as a DIY laptop stand. From there, a thoughtful design helps to eliminate unnecessary waste by making it easy to disassemble, repair, upgrade and recycle the computer or its components.
The green PC’s 99% recyclable 15.6-inch FHD IPS display is powered by 11th Gen Intel® Core(TM) processors, so users can count on world-class performance and productivity when they need it. When working on less demanding tasks, Acer’s new VeroSense(TM) software gives users the option of selecting a usage mode that has been optimized for energy efficiency and battery life. Features like Wi-Fi 6, a Type-C USB port and two Type-A USB ports make for a more reliable usage experience, while Acer TrueHarmony(TM) and Acer PurifiedVoice(TM) with AI noise reduction allow for crystal-clear conference calls

About Ecologists
Ecologist is a platform for real climate action. They facilitate the funding of carbon reduction projects and tree planting around the world. Ecologi provides a simple but powerful subscription service to reverse climate change. To date, they have planted over 23 million trees and funded climate solution projects that have reduced over 800,000 tonnes of CO2. Its mission is to reduce 50% of global CO2 emissions by 2040 and responsibly plant billions of trees every year.
To do this they call on individuals & businesses to take personal responsibility and help tackle the biggest threat of our generation. Collectively, with a little input from a lot of people, we have the power to secure our future.
They’re quickly gaining momentum: It took them nine months to plant their first million trees and less than 1 week to plant their last million.
