Tearing down a perfectly serviceable and functional canopy, just to replace it with a more aesthetically pleasing has a negative effect on the environment. All the carbon released to deconstruct the existing canopy, dispose of it, manfacture the new canopy and install it will contribute to global warming for no social benefit.

Remember WWAGD (what would Al Gore do) whenever thinking about environment. The store should be fined and the fine used to buy carbon offsets.
