Green Mania?
Transformers: Trends & Facts
A
Google search of "Green Business"
reveals more than 218 million
hits...everything from
MBA programs to
water-free toilets.
The "green economy" is estimated at $228 billion, according
to the
Washington Post.
And Americans are even willing to ante up $21 more a month of
their own money to help slow global
warming (up from $14 a month in
2003), according to a
recent MIT poll.
So, what's fact? What's hype? And what's just another
opportunity to earn more green? It
may still be too soon to tell. But
here's a great summary of
how big business went a bit greener
in 2006.
