Yes, Earth Day is this week, and I know a lot of you tree-huggers out there--those of you who own computers--are probably collectively rolling your eyes at all the eco/green/energy-conscious coverage on the Internets this week.

Speaking for myself, your poser-sensing skills would be right on the money. While I'm no Dr. Blight or anything, I'm not as earth-conscious as I could be in my everyday life.

After the jump, you'll find the Top 5 23-inch+ eco-friendly monitors; selected only because of their relatively low yearly costs. Why 23-inch plus models only? Well, hit the link to find out.

Also, we updated our monitor energy consumption comparison chart to be inline with current monitor reviews. Check that out, too.
