Green Living Products Does anyone besides me think Global Warming is a Marketing scheme used to raise prices on Green Products ???

Question by whirling W dervish: Does anyone besides me think Global Warming is a Marketing scheme used to raise prices on Green Products ???
As a Liberal living in a Tiny Farm town I’m very concerned about our environment.

BUT at the same time I can’t remember any Corporation ever doing anything for the Global Good.

Do they expect us to pay more for gas if it is Green? Or for plastic cars that weigh less?

Best answer:

No – actually some of us passed 5th grade science and know better.

“Green” products can be a marketing gimmick if you don’t pay close attention.

But that has nothing to do with the REALITY of Global Warming.

I have seen first-hand how recycling plants use less fossil energy than other production plants… so it is not something that I just read in a “liberal” book somewhere.

But some things – (like corn ethanol) are not any better for the planet because it actually takes more fossil fuels to create and makes harmful biproducts in the production process.

It is also not good for the air to buy Organic if you are shipping it across the country in gas-powered semi-trucks…

Give your answer to this question below!
