Recycled T Shirt Bracelet
Is the “Green” products industry going a bit over the top…. or is it just me?
Just a sampling of the stuff being peddled:
Elephant Dung stationary
Elephant Dung boxes
Recycled Pine fiber boxer/briefs for men. ($39.00 for one.)
Hemp Cargo Pants $99.00 pr. (how appropriate)
Hemp/Old Tire Sandals $59.00
100% Cotton T-Shirt $38.00 each (100% cotton… how novel)

Richard….. I am simply pointing out the obvious fact that the so-called “Green” movement is all about the $$$$ money….. nothing else….. there is no noble cause to save the planet.
I’m all for free enterprise….. but I take a dim view of charlatans.
Just a sampling of the stuff being peddled:
Electric can openers
Electric pencil sharpeners
Electric swiffer mops (battery powered)
Hummers
I can go on. I may detest the concept of the products, but I won’t get in the way of the free market. What’s your problem, do you hate free enterprise? People will buy anything. Get over it.
BB – I appologize for my rudeness. I would agree that when there is an issue that confgronts mankind, someone will be there to take advantage of the situation. I would also agree that the products you mentioned are for the fringe of society (except the cotton t-shirt, wouldn’t pay $38 for one, though), but to each their own. I guess my point is that there are extremes either way that make neither side look rational. That’s why I TRY to stay somewhere in the center.
