saying they'r","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>For weeks the members of the Federal Reserve&#39;s Federal Open Market Committee have been saying they&#39;re on board with boosting their key policy rate by 50 basis points at each of the next two meetings. Traders, though, are now pricing in a 75-bp hike.</p><p>Even though the central bankers have been unusually clear in stating that they plan to raise the federal funds rate target range by half a percentage point to 1.25%-1.50% at the June meeting, they always qualify the statement by saying their decision will be data-dependent.</p><p>And Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell has repeatedly said that the central bank will do what it takes to bring down inflation. Last month, he emphasized, &#34;I think the one thing we really cannot do is to fail to restore price stability... Nothing in the economy works, the economy doesn&#39;t work for anybody without price stability.&#34;</p><p><b>Inflation gauge</b>: Data released on Friday could have the FOMC thinking about that bigger rate increase. The consumer price index climbed higher than expected in May, dashing hopes that inflation had already peaked. On a Y/Y basis, CPI rose 8.6% in May, exceeding the 8.2% expected and up from 8.3% in April. Stripping out volatile sectors of energy and food, CPI increased 6.0% from a year ago, just above the consensus and down from 6.2% in April.</p><p>And while the media and pundits have been making much of the hotter-than-expected CPI number, the Fed places greater weight on personal consumption expenditure numbers. In April, the most recent month PCE figures are available for, the PCE price index increased 6.3% Y/Y, as expected, and core PCE rose 4.9%, also in line. Whether CPI or PCE, both are rising far faster than the Fed&#39;s 2% inflation goal.</p><p>Steve Englander, Standard Chartered head of Global G10 FX Research and North America Macro Strategy, still expects a 50-bp hike this week, but doesn&#39;t preclude a 75 bp increase. He even sees &#34;an outside chance of 100bps at the 15 June meeting. However, this is not a Fed that likes to surprise, and the consumer confidence is shocking, so we retain 50bps as our June baseline,&#34; he wrote in a note dated June 13.</p><p>Former New York Fed president William Dudley said on Tuesday he thinks the FOMC will go with the 75 bp increment, but brings up the possibility of 100 bps, too, the <i>Wall Street Journal&#39;</i>s Michael Derby reported.</p><p>&#34;Chairman Jerome Powell and his colleagues are walking a monetary policy tightrope hoping to avoid a recession while dampening demand. This year’s decline in stock prices and rise in bond yields are among the more obvious consequences of the Fed’s actions,&#34; said Bankrate Economic Analyst Mark Hamrick.</p><p><b>Good reason to surprise</b>: Barclays&#39;s Jonathan Millar is expecting a 75bp hike this week. &#34;We think the U.S. central bank now has good reason to surprise markets by hiking more aggressively than expected in June,&#34; he wrote in a note after the CPI report was issued on Thursday. Millar also increased Barclays&#39; forecast for the terminal rate by 25 bps to 3.00%-3.25% in early 2023.</p><p>Goldman Sachs&#39; Jan Hatzius ratcheted up his expectations for the Fed to hike rates by 75 bp in both June and July, a move that would &#34;quickly reset the level of the funds rate at 2.25-2.5%, The FOMC&#39;s median estimate of the neutral rate,&#34; he wrote in a note dated June 13. (The neutral rate is when the interest rate neither fuels the economy nor hinders it.) His expectation for the terminal rate is unchanged at 3.25%-3.5%.</p><p>Deutsche Bank Chief U.S. Economist Matthew Luzzetti still expected (as of June 10) 50 bps hikes at each of the June and July meetings, but is now expecting 50-bp hikes in both September and November, then &#34;downshifting to a pace of 25bps hikes at the December meeting. The upshot is that we now see the fed funds rate ending this year at 3.125%, and peaking at 4.125% by the middle of 2023,&#34; he wrote in a note to clients.</p><p>Fed swaps trading priced a 4% terminal rate by mid-2023, Bloomberg reported on Monday.

Traders, though, are now pricing in a 75-bp hike.Even though the central bankers have been unusually clear in stating that they plan to raise the federal funds rate target range by half a percentage point to 1.25%-1.50% at the June meeting, they always qualify the statement by saying their decision will be data-dependent.And Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell has repeatedly said that the central bank will do what it takes to bring down inflation. Last month, he emphasized, \"I think the one thing we really cannot do is to fail to restore price stability... Nothing in the economy works, the economy doesn't work for anybody without price stability.\"Inflation gauge: Data released on Friday could have the FOMC thinking about that bigger rate increase. The consumer price index climbed higher than expected in May, dashing hopes that inflation had already peaked. On a Y/Y basis, CPI rose 8.6% in May, exceeding the 8.2% expected and up from 8.3% in April. Stripping out volatile sectors of energy and food, CPI increased 6.0% from a year ago, just above the consensus and down from 6.2% in April.And while the media and pundits have been making much of the hotter-than-expected CPI number, the Fed places greater weight on personal consumption expenditure numbers. In April, the most recent month PCE figures are available for, the PCE price index increased 6.3% Y/Y, as expected, and core PCE rose 4.9%, also in line. Whether CPI or PCE, both are rising far faster than the Fed's 2% inflation goal.Steve Englander, Standard Chartered head of Global G10 FX Research and North America Macro Strategy, still expects a 50-bp hike this week, but doesn't preclude a 75 bp increase. He even sees \"an outside chance of 100bps at the 15 June meeting. However, this is not a Fed that likes to surprise, and the consumer confidence is shocking, so we retain 50bps as our June baseline,\" he wrote in a note dated June 13.Former New York Fed president William Dudley said on Tuesday he thinks the FOMC will go with the 75 bp increment, but brings up the possibility of 100 bps, too, the Wall Street Journal's Michael Derby reported.\"Chairman Jerome Powell and his colleagues are walking a monetary policy tightrope hoping to avoid a recession while dampening demand. This year’s decline in stock prices and rise in bond yields are among the more obvious consequences of the Fed’s actions,\" said Bankrate Economic Analyst Mark Hamrick.Good reason to surprise: Barclays's Jonathan Millar is expecting a 75bp hike this week. \"We think the U.S. central bank now has good reason to surprise markets by hiking more aggressively than expected in June,\" he wrote in a note after the CPI report was issued on Thursday. Millar also increased Barclays' forecast for the terminal rate by 25 bps to 3.00%-3.25% in early 2023.Goldman Sachs' Jan Hatzius ratcheted up his expectations for the Fed to hike rates by 75 bp in both June and July, a move that would \"quickly reset the level of the funds rate at 2.25-2.5%, The FOMC's median estimate of the neutral rate,\" he wrote in a note dated June 13. (The neutral rate is when the interest rate neither fuels the economy nor hinders it.) His expectation for the terminal rate is unchanged at 3.25%-3.5%.Deutsche Bank Chief U.S. Economist Matthew Luzzetti still expected (as of June 10) 50 bps hikes at each of the June and July meetings, but is now expecting 50-bp hikes in both September and November, then \"downshifting to a pace of 25bps hikes at the December meeting. The upshot is that we now see the fed funds rate ending this year at 3.125%, and peaking at 4.125% by the middle of 2023,\" he wrote in a note to clients.Fed swaps trading priced a 4% terminal rate by mid-2023, Bloomberg reported on Monday. Some 175 bps of tightening is expected by September, implying two half-point increases and one 75-bp boost.Economic projection update: The committee will also release its Summary of Economic Projections on Wednesday, updating their expectations for a range of economic measures, including GDP growth, inflation and the unemployment rate over the next couple of years. Fed watchers, of course, will be focused on the so-called dot plot that summarizes the expected path of the fed funds rate.In the March SEP, Fed members' median projections were for federal funds rate of 1.9%, GDP growth of 2.8%, PCE inflation of 4.3%, and unemployment rate of 3.5% at the end of 2022.

That's up from 79,084 on Wednesday, up 19% in two weeks and up 75% since since the November low. It has reached the highest level since Sept. 28. Read MarketWatch's daily \"Coronavirus Update\" column. \n\n\n  During the week ended Dec. 28, an average of 378 people aged 17 and under were hospitalized with the coronavirus, up 66% from the week before, the Associated Press reported. The previous post-pandemic high was 342 in early September. \n\n\n  The latest data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show that 188.08 million adult Americans are fully vaccinated, or 72.8% of that population. But only about 33% of eligible children, aged 5 to 17 years, are fully vaccinated, according to a MarketWatch analysis of CDC data. \n\n\n  Meanwhile, the daily average of new cases leapt to 344,543 on Thursday, NYT data showed. That represents a 14% jump from Wednesday, a near-tripling (up 181%) in two weeks, a four-fold increase since Dec. 1, and was 37% above the previous pandemic peak of 251,232 on Jan. 11. \n\n\n  The daily average death toll was 1,221 on Thursday, down 5% in two weeks, but up 34.5% from the November low of 908. \n\n\n  The U.S. states showing the highest daily average of hospitalizations per 100,000 people were Ohio at 46 and Delaware at 45, while New York led in cases with 298, followed by New Jersey with 224. Michigan and Tennessee were tied for the most daily average deaths per 100,000 people at 0.96. \n\n\n  CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky said this week that compared with vaccinated people, those who are unvaccinated people are 10 times more likely to be infected with the coronavirus, 17 times more likely to be hospitalized and 20 times more likely to die. \n\n\n  If there is something to be hopeful for next year, as 2021 draws to a close, South Africa, where the first reports of the omicron variant emerged, said the latest wave had crested without a big surge in deaths, according to a Reuters report. \n\n\n  . \n\n\n  More numbers and news \n\n\n  Global tallies \n\n\n  The global tally for the coronavirus-borne illness rose to 286.78 million as of midday Friday, while the death toll grew to 5,432,684, according to JHU data. \n\n\n  The U.S. remains the world leader in total cases, with more than 54.29 million, and in deaths, at 824,376. \n\n\n  India is second by cases after the U.S. at 34.84 million and has suffered 481,080 deaths, as of the latest count.

The search giant, a stepping-off point for many shoppers, says the push is part of its \"goal to help one billion people make more sustainable choices by 2022.\" \n</p>\n<p>\n  Read:Google Flights lets travelers see their carbon footprint -- but can you trust it? \n</p>\n<p>\n  Razors add up \n</p>\n<p>\n  In 2020, 158.10 million people in the U.S. used disposable razors. That number is expected to increase to 160.16 million by 2024, based on U.S. Census data and the Simmons National Consumer Survey. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Most disposable razors only last for up to 6-9 shaves, after which they're blunt and destined for a landfill. The average person who shaves daily or every few days can burn through some 40-50 disposable razors each year and if each razor weighs around half a pound, that's roughly 1,200 pounds of mostly plastic razors per individual. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Considering the U.S. population, Americans tossed out an estimated 2 billion pounds of disposable razors and blades each year in the 1990s, the last comprehensive breakdown from the EPA. That estimate is now probably too low, given population increases and the popularity of disposable razors over formerly traditional shaving options, such as longer-lasting safety razors or electric shavers, says the Natural Resources Defense Council. And, according to this USA Today report, the EPA no longer separates disposable razor data from other plastics. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Read: 3 ways to shrink your carbon footprint the next time you're grocery shopping \n</p>\n<p>\n  Safety first? \n</p>\n<p>\n  Increasingly, some consumers are forgoing plastic razors for a throwback shaving method -- a typically metal alternative safety razor, or a double-edged razor. It preceded the popular use of the disposable and is typically made from either brass, chrome or stainless steel. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Because disposable razors are made with both plastic and metal, which are hard to separate, they are difficult and costly to recycle. In contrast, safety razor blades, which snap in and out of place, can be recycled with other metals. When allowed to rust and break down, they decompose naturally over time without leaching toxic chemicals into waterways, soil or the air. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Safety razors, once you get the hang of it, are relatively easy to use. They offer a closer shave than disposable razors and are easier on the skin, say proponents. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Barbers surveyed by New York Magazine landed on the German-made Merkur 34C heavy-duty short-handle safety razor based on the company's long manufacturing history and a respectable price point at $42. It's size and design make it well-suited for beginners. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Another option is Zomchi, about $20 on Amazon.com<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">$(AMZN)$</a>. People with sensitive skin swear by these plastic-free safety razors, say the editors at Elle magazine. Just replace the recyclable blades whenever they're wearing out. \n</p>\n<p>\n  When handled carefully, safety-razor blades can be recycled. A blade \"bank\" is a metal container that can safely store discarded blades. There are blade banks online that are available for a few dollars each. Or consider this \"blade disposal unit,\" says Joseph Rauch, writing for his Public Goods blog. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Read: Why is everything so expensive? Trending Google and Reddit queries reflect everyone's pain right now \n</p>\n<p>\n  Disposables are changing, too \n</p>\n<p>\n  But for those who like disposable razors, either because they are traveling, or loathe the idea of a razor sitting around and collecting risky bacteria or going dull and raising the risk of a painful nick, there are more plastic-free and zero-waste razors coming to market. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Consumers are pushing companies to think about the lingering days and years of their products long after their initial use. Design and technology have evolved, too, as has the variety of mail-order razors, blades and shaving accoutrement, giving the drugstore brands some healthy competition. \n</p>\n<p>\n  All of these factors are driving even major consumer conglomerates to rethink their product lines. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Procter &amp; Gamble's<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PG\">$(PG)$</a> Gillette has rolled out its Planet KIND razors made with 60% recycled materials and durable blades that don't need to be replaced every other day. Plus, through a partnership with TerraCycle, every razor is 100% recyclable, Gillette says. \n</p>\n<p>\n  TerraCycle was one of the first waste management companies to offer a large-scale program for tough-to-recycle products and link up large and small consumer-product firms to the recycling needs at customer homes. It has faced criticism and a lawsuit alleging the company and its clients overstate the benefits, which it is defending. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Another large manufacturer, Edgewell Personal Care<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EPC\">$(EPC)$</a> earlier this year said its Sustainable Care 2030 strategy will include its portfolio of men's and women's disposable razors, including Schick Xtreme 3 men's and Skintimate three blade women's razors. The products will include handles made with up to 100% post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic. The company also launched a program to encourage the recycling of its disposable razors and to provide an alternative to curbside recycling programs, which typically do not accept whole disposable razors. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Smaller rivals are also being inventive. One example, AkHippyChic makes an eco-friendly, disposable razor made from a wheat straw handle and stainless steel blades, which ships in sustainable packaging. JungleCulture has a bamboo-handled version. \n</p>\n<p>\n  The plastic-free, all-metal Hanni razor acts as a cross between a longer-lasting safety razor and a disposable. It has been treated with a powder coating that will keep it from rusting in the shower, earning it a 2021 award from Allure Magazine. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Beyond materials and recycling, some shoppers may also care about the social credentials of the company they're buying from. \n</p>\n<p>\n  The unisex UpCircle Beauty safety razor is made of chrome and is meant to be recycled through TerraCycle when its long life does fade. Plus, a portion of its purchase price supports the program 1% For The Planet, which redirects profits toward Earth-friendly endeavors. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Read:American families throw out $1,500 in uneaten groceries every year as food insecurity worsens \n</p>\n<p>\n  -Rachel Koning Beals \n</p>\n<pre>\n \n</pre>\n<p>\n  <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/END\">$(END)$</a> Dow Jones Newswires\n</p>\n<p>\n  December 31, 2021 15:13 ET (20:13 GMT)\n</p>\n<p>\n  Copyright (c) 2021 Dow Jones &amp; Company, Inc.\n</p>\n</font></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Sustainable New Year's resolutions: Be smarter about wasteful, expensive razors</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nSustainable New Year's resolutions: Be smarter about wasteful, expensive razors\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n<div class=\"head\" \">\n\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">Dow Jones </p>\n<p class=\"h-time\">2022-01-01 04:13</p>\n</div>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<html><body><font class=\"NormalMinus1\" face=\"Arial\">\n<p>\nMW Sustainable New Year's resolutions: Be smarter about wasteful, expensive razors\n</p>\n<p>\n  By Rachel Koning Beals \n</p>\n<p>\n  Razors ranked high on Google's most-searched sustainable products in 2021 \n</p>\n<p>\n  It's a daily or weekly routine for many, making shaving <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the most costly hygiene habits for our wallets and the environment, especially if we opt for the convenience of disposable razors. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Increasingly, consumers are rethinking where and how their razors and razor blades are manufactured and then, what happens after they're thrown away. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Google<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GOOGL\">$(GOOGL)$</a> said \"razors\" ranked among its top searches in 2021 when consumers were tracking down \"sustainable\" products.

Curious shoppers also looked for sustainable engagement rings, cleaning products and denim more often than for other green-minded products. \n\n\n  Read:Google's 2021 Year in Search: AMC and GME stocks, Dogecoin, stimulus checks and shortages dominated queries \n\n\n  In October, Google introduced features to book flights or purchase appliances that have lower carbon footprints, a Nest smart thermostat program to support clean energy from home, and allegedly, eco-friendly routing on Google Maps. And the company added tougher screening of climate-change denials, promoting instead U.N.-backed climate-change data. The search giant, a stepping-off point for many shoppers, says the push is part of its \"goal to help one billion people make more sustainable choices by 2022.\" \n\n\n  Read:Google Flights lets travelers see their carbon footprint -- but can you trust it? \n\n\n  Razors add up \n\n\n  In 2020, 158.10 million people in the U.S. used disposable razors. That number is expected to increase to 160.16 million by 2024, based on U.S. Census data and the Simmons National Consumer Survey. \n\n\n  Most disposable razors only last for up to 6-9 shaves, after which they're blunt and destined for a landfill. The average person who shaves daily or every few days can burn through some 40-50 disposable razors each year and if each razor weighs around half a pound, that's roughly 1,200 pounds of mostly plastic razors per individual. \n\n\n  Considering the U.S. population, Americans tossed out an estimated 2 billion pounds of disposable razors and blades each year in the 1990s, the last comprehensive breakdown from the EPA. That estimate is now probably too low, given population increases and the popularity of disposable razors over formerly traditional shaving options, such as longer-lasting safety razors or electric shavers, says the Natural Resources Defense Council. And, according to this USA Today report, the EPA no longer separates disposable razor data from other plastics. \n\n\n  Read: 3 ways to shrink your carbon footprint the next time you're grocery shopping \n\n\n  Safety first? \n\n\n  Increasingly, some consumers are forgoing plastic razors for a throwback shaving method -- a typically metal alternative safety razor, or a double-edged razor. It preceded the popular use of the disposable and is typically made from either brass, chrome or stainless steel. \n\n\n  Because disposable razors are made with both plastic and metal, which are hard to separate, they are difficult and costly to recycle. In contrast, safety razor blades, which snap in and out of place, can be recycled with other metals. When allowed to rust and break down, they decompose naturally over time without leaching toxic chemicals into waterways, soil or the air. \n\n\n  Safety razors, once you get the hang of it, are relatively easy to use. They offer a closer shave than disposable razors and are easier on the skin, say proponents. \n\n\n  Barbers surveyed by New York Magazine landed on the German-made Merkur 34C heavy-duty short-handle safety razor based on the company's long manufacturing history and a respectable price point at $42. It's size and design make it well-suited for beginners. \n\n\n  Another option is Zomchi, about $20 on Amazon.com$(AMZN)$. People with sensitive skin swear by these plastic-free safety razors, say the editors at Elle magazine. Just replace the recyclable blades whenever they're wearing out. \n\n\n  When handled carefully, safety-razor blades can be recycled. A blade \"bank\" is a metal container that can safely store discarded blades. There are blade banks online that are available for a few dollars each. Or consider this \"blade disposal unit,\" says Joseph Rauch, writing for his Public Goods blog. \n\n\n  Read: Why is everything so expensive? Trending Google and Reddit queries reflect everyone's pain right now \n\n\n  Disposables are changing, too \n\n\n  But for those who like disposable razors, either because they are traveling, or loathe the idea of a razor sitting around and collecting risky bacteria or going dull and raising the risk of a painful nick, there are more plastic-free and zero-waste razors coming to market. \n\n\n  Consumers are pushing companies to think about the lingering days and years of their products long after their initial use. Design and technology have evolved, too, as has the variety of mail-order razors, blades and shaving accoutrement, giving the drugstore brands some healthy competition. \n\n\n  All of these factors are driving even major consumer conglomerates to rethink their product lines. \n\n\n  Procter & Gamble's$(PG)$ Gillette has rolled out its Planet KIND razors made with 60% recycled materials and durable blades that don't need to be replaced every other day.
