What are they thinking?
Well there's a PR nightmare. Tell the world you're profits are more important than children. I don't think any consumer is going to see a silver lining in that cloud. What happens to your bottom line when people stop trusting that the toys they're buying are safe? This is an incredible opportunity for a toy manufacturer or retailer to promise to comply just in time for holiday shopping.On Toy manufacturers push back against lead-safety rule posted 1 year ago 2 Responses
Just the beginning
It's a good start, but definitely could use some tweaking. I'm also curious if they'll accept other brand filters as long as they're the same type. If they did, Brita would certainly look like a caring and environmentally responsible company.
As far as the drop-offs question goes, it's rare to find a recycling program that just starts in every grocery store and every town right off the bat. I take my plastic lids and bottle tops to one grocery store and my plastic bags to another. It takes a little time to get it all rolling conveniently, but I have think it will get there.

Giant cube? Really?
While the idea of solar panels, rain water collection and a rooftop garden are all great, the giant cube strikes me as a little odd. I don't think the people of Portland necessarily want Powell's to get a face lift. It is a essential part of Portland and Portlanders are fiercely protective of their city. But who knows? Maybe they'll dig it.On Northwest bookstore goes solar, gets compared to candy posted 1 year ago 2 Responses
