This is it, we’re off on the big trip to Austin via the Grand Canyon and Carlsbad Caverns, two places I have always wanted to visit and that I think the kids will love.
With an unplanned stop in Las Vegas.
That’s how I roll. Lots of plans followed by lots of changes in those plans.
Vegas is very intersting from a lot of perspectives (some much too interesting to talk about here), but the one that jumped out at me this trip was the now-ubiquitous “we conserve because we care” table tents. The ones that ask you to re-use your towels because it saves the planet.
It also happens to save the hotel a LOT of money. So it begs the question: is it okay if a company’s primary motivation for implementing a green methodology is financial instead of environmental? Does it make any difference to the planet if we conserve water and soap while the hotel conserves cash? I have some thoughts on this but I’d like to hear your POV in the comments first.

And money makes the world go round. So what’s the problem if they make money doing the right thing? I don’t care if they make money doing the right thing what really pisses me off is when they make money doing the wrong thing.
