I like to try not to waste energy because, well it's a waste - of money and of resources. (I am fairly crap at it but see the logic )
I like to recycle things becuse it seems nuts to chuck everything in big holes in the ground. Especially plastics where a lot of the feedstuffs come from fossil fuels too.
I don't feel like I am being 'green' or any other cobblers, just doing something logical.
The advertising bandwagon jumping Eco/Green-this that and the next thing seems to thoroughly put some people off and make them instantly lose interest. (Don't even talk to me about carbon footprints - my least favourite phrase)
AIBU to think it might all have been a bit more successful over the years if we just said 'Stop bloody wasting stuff and you'll save money, you know it makes sense' or something?

AIBU?
To think that the idea of 'saving the planet' and over use of terms like 'Eco' and 'Green' are unhelpful?
