My company, Green Meetup ( http://www.greenmeetup.com ) markets eco-friendly products and posts them for vendors on our site so people can make eco-friendly decisions. In my soul-searching, I was torn on the following question: am I doing GOOD by helping people find environmentally friendly products, or am I doing HARM by encouraging them to consume instead of reduce? Are we in the green space just contributing to the problem and making things worse? Shouldn't we all just be consuming less, living simpler lives? http://www.greenmeetup.com I was actually thinking about this the other day, I’m glad you brought it up.
