Hmm, I was a little disappointed in this. I don't really see how any of this is "eco" living. I was hoping for things that actually represented an eco-friendly lifestyle like reusable water bottles, clothes lines and compost bins. This looks more like country living or rural living. I love EA and The Sims but this feels like greenwashing if they keep the word "Eco" in the name for the stuff pack.

No. of course not. Read the original discussion and blog on this. It is a stuff pack and will have the same price as any stuff pack.
