Since the trends involving pretty much everything in our lives are moving towards being environmentally friendly and conserving our natural resources, I wondered if we could apply some of these green lessons to web design.

Some nice suggestions in there.Noticed this morning that the FTC is holding workshops and taking comments on environmental marketing, to reduce the amount of greenwashing that happens in the building and textile industry:http://www.environmentalleader.com/2008/07/16/ftc-examines-green-building-new-green-guides-definitely-in-2009/A workshop in January addressed the marketing of carbon offsets and renewable energy certificates,http://www.environmentalleader.com/2008/01/09/ftc-holds-first-workshop-on-green-advertising/One in April looked at green packaging claims.http://www.environmentalleader.com/2008/05/01/wal-mart-weighs-in-on-packaging-at-ftc-green-guides-workshop/The old guidelines:http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/grnrule/guides980427.htm
