Going Green Is About Getting Green
No matter what way you try to sell “going green” to businesses, in the end it has to come down to making economic sense. Many environmentalists seem to think we can get people to be greener because it is the right thing to do and if that isn’t your motivation, then there is something wrong.
Take for instance the recent kerfluffle over the climate change bill in the US. Some environmental groups are calling it “Let’s Make A Deal” since it has so much compromise in it. The end product isn’t even near as stringent as they would like. However, they are not looking at it at all from a business standpoint. Businesses still need to make money and there will always be some give and take in negotiations. In this case, isn’t it better to have some progress and hope for more in time?
