# 'ning Mr Toast!
That's quite a select list but very true!
I doubt there will ever be many that make it green, it's near on imposssible!

# I not buying a nintendo going to make a difference?
probably not. The only thing thats going to stop climate change is China and America deciding to use only renuable energy.

# I do my bit
in a trying-to-ease-the-guilt-westener kinda way. I recycle, conserve energy, lift-share etc. Can't see it making much difference though I'm afraid.

# I tell you what
how about they don't make stuff using those plastics in the first place? Buying stuff for people at christmas is difficult and expensive enough as it is without searching for specialist hippy shops to buy people environmentally friendly and utterly boring presents. The consumer is always punished.

# simple economics
as long as people buy the stuff, the companies sell it. you can't only blame the corps, the costumers themselves are responsible, too.

# I didn't really expect them to be eco-friendly
Won't stop me buying thier products though. i'd buy them even if they ground meat into the plastic.
