  • Tom,

    Great question...sorry for the late response. As someone who has lived by the Jersey Shore his whole life, sustainability is very important to me and my family.

    My business, ExecutiveGamingMonthly dot com has partnered with Robert Craymer(famous green designer---did back stage at Live Earth at Giants Stadium) to manufacture the 1st line of Eco-Friendly casino gaming tables.

  • Eco-friendly gaming tables...that's a really smart idea. Not the first category that would jump to mind but undoubtedly a terrific niche. Good luck and thanks for the comment.

  • Hi Tom, here in Ireland we are big on buying green and green policy talk no so much on the action. We have an initiative called the power of one. Its basically a rehash of "Turn the lights and appliances off when not in use" campaign. Hard to accept that as making much of a difference when you look at any major city at night with buildings and office blocks lit up like christmas trees and no one inside them !

  • These are exactly the kinds of disconnects that make people skeptical of the impact of personal activity. I'm not convinced that it's anything but symbolic, either. Yet, it feels almost shameful to waste resources (energy, materials) when I know that we're trying to diminish the overall problem we're facing. Thanks, Lack.

see all

  • I go out of my way to buy products that arent environmentally friendly. Buying so called "organic foods" does not appeal to me as much as eating crops with chemicals.

  • I have not purposely purchased goods that were marketed as green.

  • Should we buy green? or maybe not buy at all?

    Do we need more SUV's even if they get somewhat better mileage?

    The American solution to almost anything is to buy something new. How about going back to fixing toasters and having a lawn small enough to be mowed by human power? Aloha :)

  • Even if I believed the global warming hysteria, I still wouldn't buy "green" products because more than likely they are made by people like Al Gore who are just looking to profit from human gullibility.

  • Our company just went to wind power

  • so that no longer you want to speak to me
