Hello my green green world. Well I doubt is getting any greener, looked out my apartment these past few days and the haze is back.....oh gosh it is so hard isn't it. It is hard to see what the world is turning into and even harder to start my project of 'living green", slowly but surely I will get there.
Things that got me thinking over the weekend was, if we want to start living green of course we need the help of some green products. Let's face it, we are slaves to loads of product in the market and some we can't live without. So I got on searching and what would ya know they have top 'green brands', but I think it is in the US.
The list includes corporate giants like Clorox - yeah the bleach company and Colgate-Palmolive. It is more like they own brands that are in the top 10 "green" brands. This is according to new global survey of consumer perceptions by WPP - some giant marketing and communications firm.
1. Burt's Bees - hmm I think I have heard of them and they are new in Malaysia. Something like the Body Shop but I think most of their stuff are made of bee's wax. It is owned by Clorox.
2. Whole Foods Market - natural and organic store - another one of those!!! I think we have something similar in Malaysia. But what I can tell you is that most of it are super expensive
3. Tom's of Maine - apparently owned by Colgate Palmolive - another lifestyle brand.
4. Trader Joe's - a grocery store in the USA - none in Malaysia, I checked
5. Google - yup the fav search engine is also green......hmm I wonder how did that happen
6. Aveeno - another lifestyle brand.....not available in Malaysia
7. SC Johnson - nope it has nothing to do with Johnson & Johnson. Sc Johnson does all these cleaning stuff for household. Some of it is available in Malaysia. Good to know and shall check that out
8. Public - this I am not sure, is it us the public or a brand.....I need to do more research on this
9. Microsoft - wow surprise surprise...
10. Ikea - woo hooo they made it too. This is only for those who can afford them
