This article is pretty funny, and truthful at the same time. It talks about Home Depot and it's marketing campaign to offer more environmentally sound products. But what the vendors are offering is the same products, just new labeling and marketing.
I have seen so many products at several different stores that have green labels and big gold stars and packaging saying "Good for the environment" or "Made from recycled paper". What I have seen more of than anything else is all the new products with
organic in the name. Just how many of those products do you think really are "organic"?
For instance, the next time you need bath towels, go to Target and get the
organic ones. Or how about that
organic chair you have been wanting. Even Darpa, the defense based contractor for the government has got an organic product; the
Organic Air Vehicle II.
There are so many ways to be nature freindly!
