Response to Max Senew's Post

When looking for companies that are socially responsible, it seems to be a hard thing to find these days.  This case is especially true for American based companies.  It seems that most companies are more focused on their finical well being then what is happening in the society around them.  But there is one U.S. based company that seems to care about society.  That would be the Walt Disney Company.  Instead of just providing entertainment to us, they also feel a responsibility to contribute to making the world a better place.  Examples from Walt Disney that can be seen is that they run their trains on biodisel made from cooking oil from their own hotels, they established a worldwide conservation fund, and lastly they institute a "green standard" for their employees and cast.  So as seen here, Disney does things to help make the world a little better.  Even though it is hard to come by, it is a good thing to see.  Can you think of any other companies that are more focused on their social responsibilities instead of personal profit?
