At first I thought this post was a joke…
“Gore Praises Wal-Mart for Sustainability Plans”
Sustainability?
The demigod of consumable & disposable society…
Simply reading any definition of what “Sustainability“ is
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sustainability
Know for driving the outsourcing of American raw materials, manufacturing and labor, how could anyone read any article and believe Wal-Mart has anything to do with “sustainability”.
While I will applaud any organization or individual for making a positive change, sustainability is a lifetime commitment and not a one time marketing ploy.
The demigod of consumable & disposable society should be used as a poor example at best.
Sustainability is not about what a company is doing today to “green market” eco-conscious consumers, it is about social responsibility and commitment to protect people and their ecosystems.
Wal-Mart has done neither…
I didn’t read the whole article as I do not have the stomach for it.
