There is some truth to that, but you also need to be reminded that companies will look at profit before they look at environmental impact.

Yes, producing goods pollutes, but it could pollute way less if they changed the way they produce.

But corporations won't do that because it cuts into their profit.

So it is much cheaper to blame the consumers for wanting products.

(Products they try to convince you to buy through marketing I might add)
