Thank you Al Gore for the buzz word of a generation. So I just got an email explaining the new "greener" process for our company Christmas gifts. Well before I go off the deep end, read it.
In support of the hospital's goal to be green, the greeting card and envelope are made from recycled paper and the gift selection card is embedded with flower seeds and can be planted and watered to grow flowers after the card has been redeemed.
I'm sure if we plant these the flower will grow new gift cards that can be replanted, and so on and so forth saving the world from the evil of human kind. Only isn't burying garbage in your yard illegal? Don't land fills need a federal permit to do just that? But this time it's ok, because well it is stamped as a green product. And that's clearly a regulated term that can't just be stamped on anything right? No one would ever lie about that? And everyone has agreed what makes something "green" right? Yeah all of this has been worked out and we the consumer bear no responsibility anymore once we buy something that's green.
Why "green" by the way? Are the only living things that are good green? Should we destroy any plant or animal that does not have some green? Fungi are mostly evil by this narrow focus term. Only there is this really smart guy who thinks that he can save the world with Fungi. Check this out. Paul Staments on 6 ways Fungi can save the world.
I ramble more when I don't feel good. You're welcome!
