US Consumers Rank Last in World Survey of Green Habits
Americans rank last in a new National Geographic-sponsored survey released Wednesday that compares environmental consumption habits in 14 countries. Americans were least likely to choose the greener option in three out of four categories - housing, transportation and consumer goods_ according to the assessment.It is not just the choice. It is the desire to have the latest and greatest. To have the biggest and most. The problem with that? Those iPods, PCs, TVes, shoes, jeans....just get thrown away. Stop the buying frenzy as well as start buying the greener product.
