I think what we're seeing is a failure of capitalistic consumerism. I'd attribute this all to corporate fiefdoms.
If people wanted green products as much as our captive state wants exotic financial derivatives, we'd be living in utopia. In the end...that we consume isn't the problem. That's life. What we consume and how we produce it, are what matters. It could conceivably be the case that rampant consumption is beneficial to our environmental situation - and that, I think, is a failure of the environmental movement to successfully brand itself.
