In fact, I even buy products with PVC in them. My issue is with deceptive advertising. It's like selling an incandescent lightbuld and calling it the "eco-bulb" because it has a green film on the bulb. If they called it "Dura-Dek" I wouldn't have an issue. I just think they're trying to get ill-informed people whose consciences are eased by throwing #7 plastic in the recycling (it's NOT recycled folks) to also feel ever so eco about installing PVC decking.

I do agree that maybe the company shouldn't advertise that it is "eco-friendly", but I am sure there are plenty of products that we all use that are damaging to the environment. If we want all this great technology, there are just some facts that we have to face. Just something to think about.
