I protest the use of the adjective "guilt-free" to describe your "green" merchandise. I reserve the right to make consumer choices based on my own rationale, not yours. Non-"green" merchandise does NOT make me feel guilty, nor should it. Please do not project your own eco-neuroses onto me.
As ever,
Marilyn

It made me laugh out loud. For real.
I'm a total hippy who once started a recycling company. Can we still be friends? (I don't care if you buy "green" or not. I think "green" is obnoxiously over-used.)
ReplyDeleteChels,
ReplyDelete"Hippy"-ness is not the point. I use cloth diapers, recycle, drive a hybrid car, use cloth shopping bags, and line-dry all my clothes. The point that no one gets to tell me which purchases I should or should not feel "guilty" about---based on some arbitrary standard unrelated to my consumer needs,family size, or other behaviors.
Allison: Hilarious article! And insightful, too. Thanks for sending it!
