  I think these days, most people (I include myself) are clueless about what "Eco/ Green" means.

  But because its trendy now, every single company out there is using it purely as a marketing gimmick, to keep selling product,

  

  
  which ironically, consumption is the biggest enemy of this "going green/ eco" trend.

  We need to remember that green means:
  

  

  you can paint something green, or use leaves/ plants motifs on its design, but that does not make it green, but the current situation shows us, that is enough to qualify it as "green".
