Small-Buisness Owners Struggling to go Green

When searching for something to discuss in my presentation for class this week, I stumbled upon an interesting Poll by Gallup Organizations. This poll, out of Princeton, New Jersey, focused in on small businesses. Many of the businesses surveyed said that it is hard to be "green" in today's economy. In fact, "One in three small business owners say the economy has impacted their plans to become more green" (http://www.gallup.com/poll/117340/Small-Business-Owners-Struggling-Become-Green.aspx). I think that this is really interesting and something I never actually thought of. Many of the large corporations are seen as going green, but they have more money and they are more regulated by the government. Walmart even shuts off the majority of their lights inside whenever it is sunny because they have the large windows on the roof.
