This is the first time I’ve ever commented on a blog, but this just angered me & I couldn’t resist. This is a classic example of either someone who is very narrow minded or writes a blog to simply create controversy. Who cares if someone drives an SUV or lives in a huge house & how can it possibly matter what motivates someone to do more. Who cares? The fact is, they’re doing more than they were before… The “Modern Conscious Consumer” isn’t about to make major sacrifices with their lifestyle. They like the way they live, but they’re willing to do more. More is great!! Baby steps.
I also don’t care that businesses are jumping on the eco bandwagon to exploit it & make money. If the result is helping the planet, it’s still good!
I represent a website that’s all about fashion, beauty & lifestyle for the eco & socially conscious. The site will remain nameless, because it’s not good business practice to use other people’s blogs to promote yourself. However, we are geared to the to a person who has a realistic view of being green. They want to do more (sometimes a little, sometimes a lot) & it’s all great!
Yes, it would great if everyone gave up their SUVs & started composting, but that’s just not very realistic. I love the fact that people are getting together to look for ways to help, even if they’re doing it because it’s “in.”
