Hardware Knowledgebase - Do LCD's Have any Energy or Radiation benefits over CRT Monitors? - HardwareFAQs: powered by neofaq: "Regular CRTs have lots of glass, mercury and lead which, when disposed of incorrectly, is very harmful for the environment. LCD's have a higher cost of production but they also have fewer such problems when being discarded."

About LCD and CRT monitors - Factors in selecting your computer monitor technology.: "LCD technology virtually eliminates radiation emission. However, all CRTs emit Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) electric and magnetic fields from 60 Hz to 75 Hz, and Very Low Frequency (VLF) electric and magnetic fields from 10kHz to 30 kHz. Specific frequencies vary by type."

Energy Calculator PC Equipment: Tool to calculate the energy saving in your office!

Energy and IT vendors devise ways to save electricity: On average, CRT monitors use 80 to 120 watts while switched on. LCDs are much more energy-efficient at 30 to 50 watts in use. Although LCDs still cost significantly more than CRTs, Hershberg said the Energy Star staff is fielding lots of agency questions about how to analyze the potential savings of a switch from a CRT to an LCD.

The large amount of waste heat from CRTs increases the need for cooling in offices with many computers, Hershberg said. He noted that Hitachi Data Systems Corp. in late July announced that it would no longer build CRTs.

Remains of a pre-historic civilisation including stone-age tools, artifacts and skull fragments of a 'Niah Man', aged between 35,000 and 40,000 years old, have been discovered at the Niah Caves, located at the northernmost corner of the state. Around 7th or 8th century AD, when traders form China, Japan, India and Arabia plied the maritime route, the early Sarawakians traded using beads, pepper, and swiftlets' nests-found in the roofs of the Niah Caves-as trading currency."
