Why would lemmings commit suicide?

Read the papers, listen to pundits, and you will know that everyone says it costs money to “go green” – and in a recession, it’s a luxury few firms can afford. This is consistent with other things we know – we think of environmental regulations, and we know that regulations often add cost to business. Take waste electrical goods – these now have to be disposed of correctly (WEEE regulations), and you can’t just hide them in the skip with the rest of your trash. So if everyone says it, and it makes sense, the logical conclusion is that it must be true.
