It's one of those things that startle you. Profit in being green? Yes! Apparently recycling is no longer good ecology, but is good business. China buys our recycled stuff for packaging. The rise of the Eastern business sector has created a demand for materials that raw materials suppliers simply cannot fill. So they buy recycled wood and other materials.
This diary will also show you that green is not only moral, but very profitable as well. You have already heard about solar power, but are other alternatives also profitable as well? I will also share as many links as I can on the subject.
