You're Right Molgrips we do have an economy geared towards consumption, Growth driven by unsustainable consumption is what primarily drives our Economy at the moment, if all the talk of a "Low Carbon Economy" is to come to anything then I think Businesses that manage to offer goods and services which actually do the opposite; actually capitalize on opportunities to reduce consumption, need to be encouraged, some true innovation is required, not just repackaging the consumer world we already live in with the strap line "Low Emissions" thrown in for good measure.
