Also economies of scale have an impact too. An expensive eco-friendly product might be produced in smaller numbers causing more waste through the supply chain.

This is all speculation -- but products made a scale are often made with high efficiency.
What surely works is when we ask big corporations to do the right thing. Or if we managed to tax environmental impact.
- Khanhanhan 8y agoMany big corp products have very high margins and can afford to pay premium taxes on production or they can just charge more. Perhaps the tax income could be used for the good, but, unless such tax is a stigma and consumers can see that 20% of the price is for dirty practices and not i.e. "design", they will pay.
