Scientists have researched that world is changing because our sun is changing, and it is all known that nobody can opposite this confrontation at once. Even if people not buying flat screen televisions. Unfortunately.

So, what TV can one buy these days? I've been searching for an energy star TV that's not an LCD and it doesn't look like anyone's even making non LCD TVs much anymore.

The author made no distinction between LCDs and Plasma--is this substance used for both types? Where in the process is the gas released? Production? TV manufacturing? Disposal?

I'd venture a guess that front projectors are more environmentally sound than flat screens. You also get more bang for the buck with a front projector.

Flat screens may chug a lot of power, but aren't they a lot better than their CRT parents? Or because they're generally bigger, do they use the same electricity?

I'm still stuck into scientific practices. This is one article in one publication.

It's not a study based upon test data, it's computational analysis drawn from other works - filtered through guesswork of the scholars who wrote the article.

That's closer to opinion than science

I'm especially an advocate of computational analysis. If I was the geek I am - starting out in search of a career, today - this is probably what I would do. But, the function is most often useful and productive when coupled with hard information drawn by traditional scientific methods from primary research.

I will not be buying any Flat Screen TV's because of your article. I had planned on buying at least three for my home---not anymore! I am taking this article to work because people are buying the flat screened televisions since they have come down in price. I will have this information submitted in the school district news bulletin at work. Thank you for the information. Could you do a comparison to the old televisions?
