Another thing, and this one sort of irritates me, are the companies that boast about "going green" or setting up programs to do what they would consider to be helping the world and/or the environment or whatever. Well, 90% of the reason companies do this (the one I work for is a prime example) is because it provides yet another medium for them to sell to their clients. We've even got a website dedicated our company's "green" initiative that is supposed to provide resources and information regarding green living, how to make the most out of recycling, how to be efficient and leave a smaller "footprint" on the world, etc etc ad naseum. The site does do all these things, but what our company is more concerned with is maintaining the advertising on that site and making sure all the banners function and display properly. The content of this site is not the first priority, as much as the company claims it to be. It's all just smoke and mirrors.
"Check us out, we care!"
Yeah, about making more money.
