The document discusses how environmental protection can be profitable through win-win solutions. It provides examples of purchasing appliances like light bulbs, refrigerators, and air conditioners where the long-term energy savings outweigh the higher initial cost, making it both environmentally friendly and cost-effective. New technologies are driving down costs and enabling more green solutions to become profitable. A possible future involves shifting toward a "blue economy" where environmental protection and profitability go hand in hand.
