    It will be interesting to know what they mean by green washing? In what ways are they green? Possibly they can be duplicated around the world.

    so how is it that they green wash? I wonder if they are energy saving machines..and perhaps you have to use eco safe detergent? Kinda cool!

    Thanks for stopping by my blog even though I dissapeared for a while and am still having a hard time making a come back ;-) Glad you liked the birdy pics :)

    "Greenwashing" is (also) when a business claims to be environmentally-conscious ("green") but really isn't doing much for the environment. So, when we drove by Eco Laundry and the Hubs commented "greenwashing," I thought it was a hilarious play on words and made him turn around so I could take a picture.

    Really, we're not sure if this laundromat does anything to be more green. Maybe they do. Maybe they just claim to. Or maybe "Eco" actually stands for "economical," as in, cheap.

    So there are the words to go with the Wordless Wednesday. Hope I didn't burst anyone's bubble!

    Possibly it is the in thing to be associate with 'green' or 'eco.' And it could simply mean 'economical' as you said. :)
