WE never knew Wal-Mart was so eco-friendly, pushing campaigns to
reduce packaging and energy consumption (with hybrid trucks,
skylights and fluorescent lights) and promoting “sustainability” of
forests and fisheries. We just thought of Wal-Mart as the world’s
biggest retailer. Company CEO Lee Scott rarely ventures from
headquarters in Bentonville, Ark. But he’s been lured to New York by
Harvey and Bob Weinstein and such heavy-hitting entertainment
comrades as Steve Rattner, Bob Pittman, Charlie Rose and Jim (”Dr.
No”) Dolan (who got that moniker by killing the Jets’ West Side
stadium and maybe the Moynihan Station, too). On Monday night, Scott
will be honored for his commitment to the environment at a dinner at
the Rainbow Room followed by a private concert by the Eagles.
