I was reading Sony's "Road to Zero" environmental plan in which they plan to have zero impact on the environment by 2050 and it got me thinking does the environmental impact of the things you buy affect your decisions?
Edit: Stuffed up the poll. So just don't use it lol.

It's impossible to have zero impact on the environment. The closest they could become is if they use 100% recycled materials and green energy (Solar/Wind/etc). 2050 isn't exactly going green at a good pace. Might be years before they start going green. However I do hope they start the change now. Even Walmart is going green, however the main reason is that it saves them a ton of money. Probably the main reason most companies are going green today and not because of Climate Change.

They have goals they plan to meet by 2015 and have steps that they are taking each year to get there.
Even if it is for cost cutting measures im all for it.

Ya, and I could see a pretty much zero impact company. Solar/wind/geothermal tech will vastly improve, processes and waste disposal vastly reduced and eliminated properly, recycling of materials, more efficient buildings, etc. While it wont be 100% zero impact it will be like 98% which easily rounds to 100% since the last 2% should be easily ignored.
