Summary:
Wal-mart has gone green and is helping the environment now, which is a pleasant change from its past attitudes. Wal-mart saves consumers money buy offering different lightbulb and lower concentration detergents.
Response:
This is a good step for Wal-mart and for the going "green" theme. Even though I don't like Wal-mart I am impressed that they have become so environmentally aware. They now sell fluorescent bulbs that last 75% longer, and detergent that requires 50% less water. Wal-Mart is enabling the average consumer to go "green" by making these products affordable. This new stance has also taken the heat off the company because of the working policies it was accused of doing. Overall it is a sound move for the company and it will force others to follow them
