Do you think people are really ready to spend money on being green?
Are there successful green providers? Do you know of specific companies that are actually turning a profit providing green solutions to people and businesses? My company is doing research to find out if we can provide green services to our customers, but we want to know if people will actually buy anything!
3 AnswersOther - Business & Finance1 decade agocomplicated question about people?
Why don't people understand that their stuff is their responsiblity? I mean you bought that car, mattress, bike, coffee, chesseburger (insert product name here) and its your job to take care of it. You own a house- when the lights don't work- they're your lights. When you don't lose weight- its not Slim Fast's fault...
People are so quick to demand warranty repairs, and try to blame someone else, and make it someone else's problem.
It just seems to me that people want to bury their heads in the sand and expect someone else make all their problems go away rather than deal with their own problems and take responsiblity for their own stuff.
What do you think? What are some ways or examples in which you took responsiblity for your actions?

7 AnswersRespiratory Diseases1 decade agoDoes it scare anyone else that people ask some of these questions?
I don't want to be condescending, but I find it a little disturbing that people don't know the answer to some of these questions, and that they have to come on here to ask them! Is it as bad as I think it is? Is there hope for our future? What are your thoughts?
