I personally think 'greenwashing' does little to help climate change, what's your opinion? Do you think a major surf brand will ever truly commit to climate change by becoming Carbon Neutral? Will you pay $120 for your next pair of boardshorts to enable them to do it and stil l remain profitable?

That is really constructive and a really smart thing to say Brian. As the saying goes, STAND UP and be heard, go back to Fluid Zone!

I would also question the validity of companies going green, it seems to be the trend and the flavour of the thing to do these days, but god knows where our money is going. How do we know where the money is going and how much is actually getting there?

Has anyone done any research when you offset carbon emmissions on where and how much of the money goes back into the envronment? Be interested to see the results.

the only thing green that interests them is the US$
