Study: BP, Toyota top green energy, auto brands

Survey flawed...: I have one key problem with this survey. The method by which they determined what aspects of a business determine the "greenest" business makes little sense. Forcing a choice between three completely legitimate aspects of green business and then highlighting the difference in opinion is misleading at best, unless you're just trying to show consumer ignorance.

Sure, consumers may not know what makes a green company green... but the options given are a) not applicable to all businesses and b) critical to being a green business when applicable. Asking people who are not experts at this new field of knowledge to rank 3 critical aspects of green business doesn't really paint a useful picture.

I am encouraged, however, by the fact that almost 50 percent of the country is finally considering "green" when making their purchases. Let's reach the other half before it's too late.; Posted by: EcologicalSystems.biz Posted on: 07/09/06 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
