I'm going to rant for a moment.

John Hamilton from Steelcase just finished talking about the Think chair. The same Think chair that was presented at last year's Design:Green workshop in New York, the same Think chair featured in Metropolis Magazine recently, the same Think Chair that has its own mini website extolling its sustainable virtues and multiple awards.

I think the chair is great. As John and all of the above sources will inform you, it's designed for disassembly in 5 minutes, is almost completely recyclable and had enormous though put into its environmental impact in production and disposal.

It is, however, a showpiece. While Steelcase does have an excellent track record in taking environmental impact into account across the board, it's interesting that the Think chair is the only one they seem to talk about in terms of sustainability. The website gives you a whole section relating environmental details on the Think, and a few of their other chairs, but there's clearly been some picking and choosing as to which are their "green" chairs and which ones aren't.
