This past year, we sold over 1.2 million imprinted biodegradable sports bottles, like the ones shown below.  Kudos to all who have switched to these bottles, as they prevent plastic bottles from ending up in landfills and reduces our carbon footprint.
Unlike plastics made from corn starch, which is triggered by temperature, our biodegradable plastic bottles, which contain an additive called Bio-Batch, only starts the biodegrading process in dirt with microbes. Placing them in the dishwasher won’t hurt it, nor will every day sunlight exposure.

These bottles will not biodegrade until the landfill microbes start eating it. And no, when you pour coffee into them, they will not eat a hole in the bottom of the bottle.

This additive does not require sunlight to breakdown–only microbes found in dirt.  Many people are still confused about how certain plastics can biodegrade, so we had them certified and tested at the Electron Microprobe Lab,  Institute of Meteoritics,

Department of Earth & Planetary Sciences at the University of New Mexico.

April 22, 2011 will mark the 41st anniversary of  Earth Day, an annual event celebrated around the world as the greenest of holidays. Established in 1970, it was created to call attention to the environment.

Earth Day coverage has grown exponentially over the past decade and will get substantial coverage in most media outlets — including national television, radio, newspaper, magazines, blogs, etc.

Earth Day creates an excellent opportunity for companies to promote their environmental activities and concerns to a broad base, as well as to their local community.

What will your company do for Earth Day to stand out to its base and capture the attention of its public? How will you let your customers, prospects, employees and/or shareholders know about your efforts to reduce carbon emissions, use more eco-friendly materials, reduce waste in packaging, start a recycling campaign, cut emissions, etc?

My suggestion: Don’t forget the kids. Children are Our Future.

A national research study commissioned by the National Environmental Education Training Foundation noted that children placed the environment third in a list of 10 issues behind only AIDS and kidnapping. This contrasts greatly with adults, for whom the economy, crime, and drugs are of greater concern. Children worry about long-term issues such as damage to the ozone layer and destruction of the rain forest.

Did you know that 99% of children in America today have access to environmental classes in school, and 31 states require schools to incorporate environmental concepts into virtually every subject in all grade levels?

Reach out to children. Children have influence over parents’ buying habits. as well as being an Read more…
