A new survey by Cone consultancy found that consumers are now more concerned than before the crisis about the impact of products they buy.
From their press release:
"35 percent of Americans have higher interest in the environment today than they did one year ago;
35 percent of Americans have higher expectations for companies to make and sell environmentally responsible products and services during the economic downturn; and,
70 percent of Americans indicate that they are paying attention to what companies are doing with regard to the environment today, even if they cannot buy until the future."
