These days, it seems everyone and everything is going green.  But are all those so-called green products really earth friendly? Or is it all just clever marketing?

NBC News correspondent and author Simran Sethi is the co-creator of TreeHugger.com, the largest environmental site on the Internet and she has taken her message of environmental ethics to Al Gore, Oprah and Deepak Chopra.

She says it’s time to move past tips for being greener and toward local and national legislation to reduce our carbon footprint.  And she says more and more, this is an issue that is attracting people from all political walks of life.

Plus, Simran helps us to understand whether some popular products really are green or not.
