MSN Green survey finds that eco-friendliness has its limits, with nearly 70 percent of people saying that they would never limit toilet flushes to conserve water or use a kitchen compost. REDMOND, Wash., April 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- With Earth Day just around the corner, a new MSN Green (http://green.msn.com/) survey finds it's not always so easy being green. The survey found that overwhelmingly, almost 70 percent of the Americans surveyed say that they would never limit toilet flushes to conserve water or use a kitchen compost. As the country prepares to celebrate Earth Day, statistics show America produces enough trash in one day to equal the weight of the Empire State Building. Although half of respondents say they recycle everything possible, the rest of America needs some convincing, or some help. Nearly half (46 percent) say it will take a simplified system for identifying recyclables and curbside pickup to motivate them to recycle all their waste. However, according to the MSN Green Earth Day Survey, almost 20 percent of people still do not have access to a local recycling service, and others do not know what a carbon footprint is.
