i was thinking the other day that if everything [as in products i see advertised on tv] is 'green,' then why can't everything just be green. this brings me to one commercial in particlar. the new Reynolds Wrap. the new wrap claims to be recycled and the packaging is green. and it is nothing more than a marketing ploy. it is already much cheaper to recycle aluminum foil than it is to mine it and it has been recycled since the 70s.
via badmomgoodmom: "At least for the last couple of decades, nearly all the aluminum in the US market is recycled. ... Whether you can buy the Reynolds or the store brand, you are buying recycled aluminum."
just recycle everything, call it like it is, and stop charging more for it.
