Everywhere I look, I notice little signs advertising green products. McDonald's. The Disney Store. The grocery store now carries recycled trash bags. Sometimes I smile and relax little, thinking that maybe, just maybe, things will be OK. Maybe it's not the end of the world, and that we can save ourselves.
But then... I do not trust companies. A company is run by a group of people who don't want to lose their jobs, who want to make money, and who think they can each deflect responsibility. I wouldn't put it past a company to advertise something as green when it is not. They are trying to make a buck. It's organic produce wrapped in plastic. Yes, the Disney Store might sell organic t-shirts. Before you get all warm and fuzzy about the company, remember that they still sell all of the plastic toys and stuffed animals which will never ever go away.
