What is green? What is sustainability?

You hear the terms "green" and "sustainable" tossed around together with the word "business" a lot these days, but you may wonder: What is it? What does it have to do with me? My business?
A lot, it turns out.
According to the 2007 BBMG Conscious Consumer Report, statistically weighted to reflect US Census data, nearly nine in ten Americans say the words “conscious consumer” describe them well and are more likely to buy from companies that manufacture energy efficient products (90%), promote health and safety benefits (88%), support fair labor and trade practices (87%) and commit to environmentally friendly practices (87%), if products are of equal quality and price. 

That's right, green business isn't just for Kermit (or Moonbeam) anymore. Your customers care about it. So do your employees. So does the government, judging by the actions of Governor Schwarzenegger and many others, across the political spectrum.  Change is coming. Are you ready for it? Ready to take advantage of it? Even if it doesn't seem apparent to you, scratch the surface just a little bit, and you'll find a range of concerns, hopes, desires there, that even a year ago, were not common.
