The media can actually have a positive impact…
…especially when it could cause loss in sales.

As I reported back on July 4th, it had been reported that the manufacturers of flat panel TVs used a compound called Nitrogen Trifluoride which was found to be 17x more harmful to the ozone layer than carbone dioxide.
Now, the Linde Group, the main manufacturer of LCD panels for popular brands, has said that they will start using Fluorine which is much less harmful than Nitrogen Trifluoride. I hope their motivation wasn’t only a potential loss of sales (which I doubt since most people probably didn’t read any of these articles), but merely a way to make up for the harmful chemicals they have been using.
