Brain -> Opinion: Wal-Mart Goes Green, Becomes Biggest Environmentalist (6/20/2010 7:40:48 PM)

And it did not take Obama's Cap and Trade to make it happen - they did it because it was profitable.

(June 18) -- Sugar is the new health food. Apple is larger than Microsoft. And Wal-Mart is now the world's biggest environmentalist.

Bet you didn't see that coming.

I know somebody involved with the company and they did it to make more money. And I used to be a conservative but now I am objective. I do not consider myself a liberal, I consider myself objective.

Well youre the only one who does.

And motives dont = results. But I hope they do make it profitable, its just one more argument against cap and trade.

Lets not forgrt that Brain voted for Reagan when he was seven years old. He was a conservative then..

There should be a carbon tax to get people off of oil and using alternative energy. Why do you want to rely on imports from the Middle East? I think I'd rather have a carbon tax than pay to clean up the mess in the Gulf. Who knows how much that's going to cost, not to mention all the businesses like tourism and their economic losses.

It's more profitable for Wal-Mart and it will be for other businesses as well so they need to get
move on and do it.

I didn't vote for him, I liked him, obviously I was too young to know better. The only reason I got involved in politics when I was young is because a neighbor's father was a gynecologist and he did not like Trudeau's healthcare legislation.

"The company delivered 77 million more cases while driving 100 million fewer miles."

Even you have to be able to figure out that if you deliver more while driving less your saving money.

I did not realize Canada was thinking about a carbon tax to help pay for the clean up in the gulf. You guys are just so generous sometimes[:)]
