Earlier this year, they sent out a massive over 600 page catalog. Being interested in sustainability, I took a closer look. The catalog was printed on FSC paper and the company addressed the giant size and massive waste of paper in the catalog, by saying "This will be the only catalog you get in 2011, we will not mail another until 2012". Well imagine my surprise when I opened my mailbox today (October 2011) and found a new catalog from them. I guess they forgot they were only going to be sustainable or they are a green washing business. So another possible example of green washing, Restoration Hardware.
