Serious question - in what way did she change shopping habits for millions? Do you mean making them more aware of what they were actually buying?

Maybe "changing their shopping habits" was the wrong wording. But yes, to make people more aware of what they were buying, where it came from, and how it could affect the environment. I thought she was way ahead of her time on these things. I had a lot of admiration for her foresight and enterprise.

Re: Bodyshop founder Anita Roddick deid
Read her biography once. She was in interesting person.
Had an enormous effect on the cosmetics industry and on the role of ethics in business.
