"buy green for spring" the sign reads outside on New Montgomery St. in SOMA San Francisco

hmmmmmmmm...

wouldn't one of the most green things we could do be to chill out and consume less?

well... then there is the economy...

and people do need some items...

so buying green on these is better than not buying green...

this is the biggest joke of the green "movement". corporations have co-opted the sentiment and perverted it to simply send another message of 'buy more shit'. your light bulbs? tsk tsk, bad for the environment, better buy some new energy efficient ones! your car? oh hell no, that gas guzzling, foreign oil supporting beast? time to buy a hybrid! there are hundreds more examples, all of which end in encouraging (or guilting) us into buying new things. gross.

hey by the way, x-train flyers came in today. shoot me an email if you'd like to meet up for a handoff :)

so you don't believe in technological innovation? it's all just marketing?

ps CFL's really do use less power.

While I share sentiment with a variety of the other posters, my first reaction wasn't disdain, but one of jubilation for the overactive marijuana lobby in CA. But then again this likely isn't their handiwork.
