I do agree with all pointed mentioned. I’ve even cut down on the number of times I use the word “green” on my website and blog (though that is the title of both and I don’t have any plans of changing it). It does get old after a while.

Frankly, it turns me off to a company that is trying to get more business by using “green” terms when it’s not necessary. It looks like they are trying to capitalize on our eco-sensibilities. And while I agree with capitalism (as long as it doesn’t include basic shelter, healthcare, water and food – necessities for all at a simple level), I don’t agree with manipulating people for money.

You are spot on with your perspective – as long as honesty about not necessarily being green won’t trigger a call for bans and apologies. Some necessities are what they are, and maybe that’s good enough. Pragmatism has to fit in here somewhere, or this sustainability movement won’t be sustainable.
