Great news from across the pond

According to a new United Nations report, Europe's air is becoming much cleaner. The U.N. Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) has evidence that European countries have already met their 2010 sulphur dioxide reduction targets. As the old Chinese proverb goes, those who say it cannot be done should not interrupt those who are doing it...

Save money while saving the plastic tree

If you start noticing a little ding or dirt on the occasional 5 gallon pail of our DEEP GREEN™ cleaning products, don't blame the delivery driver!

As promised, EcoLogic Solutions is now reusing a significant percentage of the 5 gallon plastic pails containing our DEEP GREEN™ cleaning chemicals. Since reusing plastic is much more sustainable than recycling, we pick up used pails from our clients during new deliveries. Our drivers return them to our assembly plant where they are properly cleaned and reused.

There are financial incentives for clients that save empty pails for our drivers.

If you have any questions, please call (800) 477 2577.

Idle computers needlessly waste energy


By simply turning computers off when not in use, significant reductions in energy are possible. This is such an easy and often-overlooked way for everyone to reduce their environmental impact.

A new study by the British newspaper The Independent claims that computers contribute to global warming. By leaving computers running overnight, over £100m (almost $200b) in electricity is wasted by offices in the United Kingdom each year.

To add to the evidence, National Public Radio suggusts over $1 billion dollars in electricity is wasted each year in the United States alone by simply leaving computer monitors on when they are not being used.

Even when the main computer is turned off, energy is still wasted if power adapters are plugged into an outlet. The Smart Power Strip (see picture on the left) detects when the primary user of power is switched off. The Strip then cuts the power to peripheral appliances like fax machines and printers that continue to drain power. For $39.95, the manufactures claim the Strip pays for itself in energy saving.
