“One of the reasons we are doing this is partly to inform consumers, but also partly to make ourselves and our teams, especially our design and engineering and product teams, really be aware of the carbon impact of our products.  So that when we make the next generation products we are looking to lower the amount of carbon.”

Logitech is hoping to get other corporations involved as well in the labelling and certification efforts.

“Once we reach a hundred, two hundred thousand units the costs of producing Quench Sea are going to go drastically down.  Even eighty or sixty dollars is still very expensive for the humanitarian sector.”
