Spooky. I was just talking about this a few months again with a friend. What if, we said, you could go into a store like say… Walmart, and choose between different products by a uniform “green” rating system? Wouldn’t that be awesome? I mean, anything from a stereo to a box of Pop Tarts would give you a set of simple ratings that would let you know within instants about the natural resources consumed in the creation and stocking of the item.
Well fellow greenies, the commercial deity, Wal-Mart, has done it. And by done it, I mean they are working on it and it won’t come out for at least a few years.
