Kingston Launches Earth Angel USB Drive For "Love The Earth"

Due to the pressures of population and technology, the biophysical environment is being degraded, sometimes permanently. Global warming has changed the climate on earth. Heat waves, floods, volcanoes, super typhoons, blizzards, landslides, earthquakes, and droughts have killed at least a quarter million people in 2010, making 2010 the deadliest year in more than a generation. To inspire awareness and appreciation for the earth's natural environment, Kingston, the independent world leader in memory products, cooperated with the Superstar Shu Qi, and the picture author and illustrator, Jimmy, for creating the Kingston Earth Angel USB Drive (Part Number: DTEA/4GB). Available in 4GB in APAC Region, the Earth Angle USB Drive is preloaded with animation hand-drawn by Jimmy and voiced by Shu Qi. The Kingston Earth Angel USB Drive is made and packed by environmental friendly materials. The net profit generated from the sales of Kingston Earth Angel USB Drive will all be donated to World Wild Fund for Nature (WWF), re-enforcing Kingston’s determination to protect and save our earth with everyone.
