Take A Deep Breath and Plunge In

Diesel Bug KillerImagine the first time you jumped into the water. Either that, or imagine the first time you jumped into a lake or the ocean. You hold your breath, you close your eyes, and you are sure that the result will be terrible. You are so afraid. Everyone is watching. You have to do it.

You take a deep breath, and you plunge in.

The water hits you like a brick wall, in the beginning.

If you jumped into a lake or the ocean, the cold takes your breath away. Even if you are studiously holding your breath, the cold seems to knock whatever oxygen you have inside of your right out of your body. Suddenly, the cold is above you, keeping you from your air. You struggle, thrashing wildly not intelligently, and seem to come up to the surface far later than you should have.

Your lungs fill with that first deep gulp. The light blinds your eyes, and you are not sure which ways is up. Then, you quickly find where the shore is, and swim frantically toward it, until your feet touch the bottom, and you feel like you have contact with dry land again.

Have you ever thought that this must be what it feels like, if you were mother earth, to be polluted with toxic chemicals all of the time? It’s too much. It’s overwhelming.

Let Envirosafe Solutions bring you chemicals which are eco friendly. Let our environmentally friendly liquids help you maintain your business, from fuel conditioner to toilet bowl cleaner, and from mineral deposit remover to radiator coolant. Together, we can make mother earth feel better about our presence.

Rather than being dumped off a cliff into the ocean, we can nurture and protect the earth, by gradually walking our environmentally friendly behaviors into the warm tropical sea. Gradually, little by little, we are soothed by the warm, swirling ocean around us. That is the way to treat planet earth, not with harsh chemical treatments. Call Envirosafe Solutions if you want to share the soft, gentle protection of our world with our company. We provide high quality chemical solutions to business all over Australia and to select countries: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.


Agriculture and Its Carbon Footprint

marine glass cleanerIf you have been keeping up with reading all of your National Geographic and Smithsonian magazines, you know how important it is that the agricultural industry reduces its own carbon footprint and that it finds better, more sustainable ways of continuing, particularly since the global need for food may double by 3050 due to the population increase worldwide and the fact that developing nations are able to sustain themselves better and therefore have a higher quality preference for food.

Agriculture is one of the heaviest polluters on the earth, and you would think this wouldn’t be the case since it is growing stuff! However, agriculture, with the farm equipment, need for fuel, and the fact that many different plants contribute to the petroleum industry’s headway into modern society, is one of the biggest polluters in the world, and it must be brought down a bit on the emissions scale.

Even corn is used to produce ethanol, and many plant based chemicals are combined with petroleum products or are used to refine petroleum products. Agriculture itself is a big problem, but as our educational magazines tell us, it can be made far better than it is right now. One of the ways this can happen is through using some of the planet protecting techniques employed in small farms in developing countries and combining that with modern technology and innovation.

If we could combine the strengths from developing nations and modern systems, without either of their weaknesses, then we might have a solution to agriculture on our hands. Of course, we would need to implement whatever approach we took for long enough that we would know how to it would affect soil conditions over time, but that is just a matter of research.

84 Year Report on Icelandic Eco Village

Eco FriendlyThe Solheimar eco village in Iceland is only an hour outside of Reykjavik. It has only 120 residents, 40 of whom are special needs individuals. It has several small factories, a community geothermal pool, and many cool amenities which make it one of the friendliest, earthiest, and most eco friendly places which you could possibly find in Iceland, and that is saying a lot. Iceland is known for its eco friendly sustainability.

Although we would consider this to be an eco village today, it has existed for 84 years and is one of the oldest of such villages in Iceland. It was originally started as a special needs farm and home, but it has grown into the village which visitors would find completely wonderful.

Naturally, in order for a village such as this to be completely eco friendly, it has to use eco friendly cleaning solutions. This is the kind of situation for which you can use products from Envirosafe Solutions. We have many different products with many different uses, but they are all eco friendly industrial liquids, and we are so proud of the way that we are making a difference in the world today. Being eco friendly does not mean that you have to be backwoods or ultra-rich. It just means that you have to find chemical solutions, like the ones you find at Envirosafe Solutions, which are good for the environment and good for the care and maintenance you need. It is all very simple, but you have to make smart choices. That is why Envirosafe Solutions is even in business. We know that you need options.

The choices we provide you are, indeed, very smart. We provide businesses all over Australia and select countries with small and bulk amounts of solvent free degreaser, porta-loo treatment, mould rid, sanitiser, rubber remover, and laundry powder, as well as a variety of other chemical solutions which we know that you will find helpful.

Corporate Offices & Businesses

New Standards in Company Design

Solvent Free DegreaserNew standards in company design are making the act of being eco friendly much easier than it used to be. Company design requires a total architecture, aesthetics, and color scheme to all be taken into consideration when coming up with the texture and feel for your business.

So, when you are looking to implement eco friendly design, you already have more space and friendlier space to work with here in modern times than you did twenty years ago, or even ten years ago.

Companies are recognizing a need for space, a need for design and influence, and they are seeing that human nature itself needs warm, slick, modern design more than it needs efficiency or cramped office spaces. New standards in company design allow for the implementation of eco friendly features, such as solar paneling, window usage, airflow ventilation, and living walls.

Of course, with all of those environmentally safe features, you will want to use environmentally friendly liquids, or chemicals, to keep everything in good working order without harsh chemical residue or non-breathable air at certain times of the day.

Design has now led into the development of insulation which is not only more eco friendly, but which is changeable and movable, depending upon the weather or the season, so that the building itself (or the inner shell of the building) can be altered at will to meet the needs created by hot and cold weather, the extremes of both.

Of course, company design also has to do with the choices you make regarding the products your business orders to keep it going during difficult times. Without these products, your company could not function as well, and you might as well make sure that they are safe for the planet.

Envirosafe Solutions has a long list of chemical products for your business. We provide eco friendly industrial liquid to companies in Australia and other select countries and we make being ecologically safe really easy. All you have to do is pick from our selection of chemicals: antibacterial hand wash, solvent free degreaser, radiator cleaner, multi-purpose lubricant, and many others, and then call us and place your order, or place your order online: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Tree Homes

Rust RemoverOn the famous Animal Planet television channel, there is numerous programming for the Treehouse Master TV show, and Pete the expert travels all over the U.S. (and all over the world) looking for new and unusual tree houses and building custom tree houses for clients. There is something magical and primal about living in a tree house, even a custom built modern one, which appeals pretty deep to the human soul.

It’s private, it’s cozy, and there is always a perception within the house that you can’t be seen from without it. It’s a really cool feeling and there are few people who don’t find tree houses magical.

Pete the tree house master is always excited to learn about new tree houses and to see what other people have done over the course of many years when they develop and build their own tree houses. But, how does this discussion relate to being eco friendly? We’re glad you asked.

You see, when people commune with nature, they learn more about nature and how everything fits together to form a perfect whole, where thousands of tiny, unseen eco systems thrive and work together to form this cohesive whole.

Envirosafe Solutions specializes in eco friendly liquid products, but we know that not everyone takes nature activities to the point of using eco friendly chemical solutions, much less to the point of actually developing and living in a tree house as a residence. Well, it is always a good idea to take the first tiny step there is to take.

Use our chemical solutions which are all environmentally friendly liquids, like our solvent free degreaser, our sanitiser, our mould rid, and our hard water laundry liquid. There are so many ways in which we have made our products safer for the environment than other chemicals of their nature, and we want to shout it from the treetops. Tree homes are a great use for our products, because you will need cleaning and maintenance chemicals which are safe for our environment. Therefore, only use products from Envirosafe Solutions in your tree house! At the same time, you can benefit the earth by using them in your business, both your office and jobsite, as well.

The Use of Animals

mineral deposit removerBeing eco friendly in today’s world, a world of polluting innovation and efficient toxicity, can be an interesting process. For instance, if your business involves animals in any way, you may be said to be exploiting animals for your own benefit or you may be said to use animals in an eco friendly way to get work done.

Being sustainable is right, but hurting or harming animals is wrong. Where exactly do we draw the line?

What are the benefits to bringing animals into the worksite and job marketplace? The truth is that animals may be used for training employees, for pulling heavy loads, for carrying people and packages across large spaces, and for a wide variety of other purposes. Of course, if animals and people are so suited to work together, then you would think that many countries would want to replace their low cost, but high pollution transportation systems with slightly higher cost, but much lower pollution solutions which will aid you in your progress to make the world more ecologically sound.

Of course, there is a great deal of investment in the idea that, if you can get something done with less work, then it is automatically better. Well, in many ways, that is true. Efficiency, smoothness of operation, and efficacy make an operation far more revenue attracting than other, slower ways.

As long as we are using animals for eco friendly reasons, then we have to be able to care for them and clean up after them on a regular basis. Disinfectant, antibacterial hand wash, and mould rid are important parts of this process, and ours are all eco friendly in and of themselves. Naturally, you would wish to incorporate our products into your line of chemical solutions and perhaps to suggest their use to other animal caregivers and handlers.

When you use products from us, you are purposely and actively making the world better, and not just for you. Businesses which spread the word, either directly or indirectly, about eco friendly products to their employees are engaging their workers’ minds and allowing them to see the future possibilities.

Huge Iceberg headed toward Shipping Lanes in the Ocean

Eco Friendly Liquid ProductsThe iceberg known as B31 broke off of an Antarctic glacier in November of 2013. Naturally, scientists from NASA and several international agencies have been keeping a close eye on it, even going so far as to drop quite a few GPS tracking devices onto it so that we can keep a better eye on it. You would think that something of this size would be easy to track, but many icebergs are difficult to tracking during the winter months, in the dark, and other various additional conditions.

B-31 is now getting closer to shipping lanes, which have been more prevalent in recent years due to increased traffic in the southern seas, which in turn is due to more advanced technology allowing us to travel further and further out into once unfamiliar territory. Scientists are particularly watchful of this area of the Antarctic, since glaciers and icebergs seem to be melting much faster here than in other areas. They are concerned that this may be one of the biggest contributing factors to sea levels rising.

Naturally, everyone wants to make a difference when it comes to global warming, but too many people think that they are just not able to make a big enough impact to make any difference to the temperature of planet Earth. However, it is the combined use of many little changes which can, in the end, make the most difference. That is why using eco friendly chemical solutions in your regular business care and maintenance can make all of the difference in the world someday.

Envirosafe Solutions provides environmental cleaning products which are safe for the planet and which you can use to help with your part in the fight against global warming. We provide rust converter, toilet bowl cleaner, rubber remover, industrial hand cleaner and many other products. All of our chemicals are eco friendly and we provide you with a thirty day money back guarantee, so that you can try out our products and make sure that they live up to our hype. If you are looking for your own way to join the fight against global warming, then look for products from Envirosafe Solutions: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Viruses Making Batteries Non-Toxic

April 25, 2012 | Posted by  | Comments Off on Viruses Making Batteries Non-Toxic

Did you ever think that a biological virus could innovate the battery industry and make batteries non-toxic? MIT biology researcher, Angela Belcher, and her team engineered a virus which can replace the workings of a lithium battery. The virus connects specific molecules together and conducts electricity, making the storage capacity of the new batteries the same as ordinary lithium batteries. This is an innovative breakthrough in how batteries are used and stored and thrown away.

In the past, lithium batteries have been a problem when it comes to disposability. Ordinary lithium batteries are toxic on the inside and must be disposed of properly in order to not be hazardous to people or to the environment. The waste content of lithium batteries alone, multiplied by how many batteries are thrown away each year, is an ecological nightmare. Fortunately, new batteries are being created which can be rechargeable and some of which are being engineered in safer and less toxic ways. In the past, the best way to cut down battery storage and disposal toxicity was to simply buy batteries which could be recharged and reused as many times as possible, in order to reduce waste.

Thankfully, this virus-powered battery is specifically designed to reduce costs in making batteries, as well as highly toxic chemicals necessary in the production process. If this virus can be designed to increase the battery power to current lithium battery power capabilities and it can be mass produced at a much lower cost per battery, which is already being developed and tested, then it may revolutionize the cost of battery powered energy as we know it today. Unfortunately, the term “virus” has a negative connotation, so many people will need to be educated on how the organic and non-organic technologies have been fused. The cost of educating the public on this can be quite expensive, so this new and improved battery may be delayed in public production.

Envirosafe Solutions is very interested in using greener, safer energy, and that is why many of our products are earth friendly and designed for greener, safer industrial use. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Greener “Unprinting” Techniques

April 24, 2012 | Posted by  | Comments Off on Greener “Unprinting” Techniques

Ever since lasers replaced messy inkjet printing techniques, researchers have been looking to use lasers in other ways, as well. Well, finally, you can vaporize ink, words and images on paper through the use of lasers, something which is very eco friendly and saves on a lot of paper and recycling. It simply undoes the process on the same piece of paper, conserving both paper and extra printing and developing costs. Toner is mostly made of plastic polymer and carbon, and it is the polymer in the paper that is heated up to such an extent by the laser that it is vaporized. This technique is not ready for mass production yet, but it has successfully been used for removing words and images from ordinary paper, so it is simply a matter of continuing to test and evaluate the process before it is ready to mass market.

And how does the paper look after the ink has been removed? The BBC article shows a microscopic image of the paper where the image has been vaporized and the paper fibers are slightly indented because of the removal process. This would hardly be visible to the naked eye, however, and the image does show how the paper is certainly intact and quite resilient after the process is complete. It has a very small simple crater-like effect upon the paper, on a microscopic level, which is most likely due to the ink having been imbedded slightly in the paper before it was vaporized and removed. This would save on costs spent producing and replacing paper, it would save on recycling, and it would save on ink, printing and electrical costs. Obviously, it is just a small step in the right direction, but it is certainly an effective one!

Envirosafe Solutions specializes in earth friendly corrosion treatments, degreasers, and disinfectants. We want to contribute our efforts and our research to the cause of making our planet as sustainable as possible. Many of our products are septic safe, some are completely biodegradable, and all of our materials are eco friendly. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Green Rewards for Good Behavior in France

April 23, 2012 | Posted by  | Comments Off on Green Rewards for Good Behavior in France

France is going green in ways that other countries have not yet fully incentivized. For example, France’s site, CitéGreen, is offering real-time rewards for doing little eco friendly things throughout your day, like recycling or carpooling. Then, through CitéGreen’s partners and community organizations, a microchip is installed in your recycling bin (or whatever tool you are using) to track how much of your behavior is eco friendly every week. The beta version of the site allows participants to simply register on the site for free and then select which activities they would like to receive rewards for. These reward points are redeemable for gifts and discounts, and can be redeemed at any point, depending upon your minimum balance in the account. This is a new, fresh, innovative way to incentivize citizens to keep their planet green, while also rewarding consumers with up to approximately EUR 200 of extra purchasing power annually. This is quite a reward system. However, is the site new or the system new?

You see, CitéGreen is using what many people are already quite familiar with: the gaming trend. By using gaming rewards, where simple everyday tasks are rewarded with points and prizes and extra opportunities, today’s consumers are able to receive the endorphin “high” for acting responsibly, much like the high they receive for incentives in a gaming environment. The site is simply making the old system new again and highly innovative and effective by integrating these reward points into daily tasks. Now, there is a small concern about privacy, since microchips will be used to track your daily responsible actions, and those who believe that the system can be hacked and tracked will probably not be implementing the new reward system any time soon. However, it is certainly an interesting and thought-provoking idea, which can be turned into high ecological benefits and can clean up France’s pollution in a very short time if used by even fifty percent of the population.

That is precisely why Envirosafe Solutions offers eco friendly rust remover and rust converter. We want to help you with your cleaning solutions, but it is also important to us to make our planet a more sustainable place, as well. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Green Living for Naturopaths

April 20, 2012 | Posted by  | Comments Off on Green Living for Naturopaths

Whether you are a practicing naturopath or you simply prefer more natural and alternative methods of healing, you are probably reading this article because you wish to find out more about how integrate ecologically sound methods with your natural lifestyle. First, we must be sure to define naturopathy as outside of conventional medical practices and this article is in no way based upon advice from a physician or anyone with concrete medical experience. This is simply to edify individuals who are interested in holistic teachings and practices.

Going eco friendly does not mean that you have to deprive yourself.

Often, the thought of going “green” is associated with some type of deprivation. This is because toxic and harmful chemicals often provide a quick fix for issues with hair, makeup, skin, body cleansing and many other types of personal care. However, natural methods are available which are both eco friendly and quite luxurious. For example, Rudra Spa and Salon in Mumbai, India offers completely natural and earth friendly aloe vera and potato body wraps, almond and honey scrubs, and coffee scrubs. There is no chemical waste water and the results are just as good, if perhaps not better, than ordinary chemical treatments.

Addictions can cause harm to both our bodies and to our planet.

When you have a nicotine or tobacco addiction, the first thing you may hear about from concerned friends is the way in which this can destroy your health. However, not only are harmful substances a danger to your body, but manufacturing and producing these substances may not be healthy for the planet, either.

An article by Thomas E. Novotny and Feng Zhao describes how this occurs, both in cases of individual consumers and in manufacturing waste. People who smoke may litter cigarette butts which are partially non-biodegradable, manufacturers make some parts of the cigarette with non-biodegradable parts which results in total unusable waste, and manufacturers also may cause damage to the environment through their means of production. This is just one example of ways in which alternative treatments, such as naturopathy, have been found to have a positive effect both on individual trouble with addiction and with keeping our earth clean and safe.

Simply become a better consumer.

One of the main reasons why companies do not choose to adopt more earth friendly practices is that their consumers are still buying their non-biodegradable products. Sometimes, this is a matter of convenience. Sometimes, it is a matter of price. Whichever way you may look at it, consumers who buy organically produced, eco friendly food for their household are backing companies which are protecting the earth. This organic, chemical-free food also contributes to the health of your household and the happiness of your family.

Green Laundry Made Easy

April 19, 2012 | Posted by  | Comments Off on Green Laundry Made Easy

It is important to stay eco friendly while doing your household chores and fulfilling work requirements. For example, if you can reduce the carbon footprint (and the chemical residue) in your home from regularly consumed products, then you are also protecting your own body and the health of your family from harmful harsh chemical agents which are also bad for the environment. What does this have to do with laundry?

Surfactants made easy

Surfactants, the most common of which is soap, are able to chemically form spheres around grease molecules, which are identified by their fatty surface and attract certain properties of the soap right to them. Now, most soap molecules must be formed by basic soap properties formed from basic simple chemical compounds. However, most of us do not buy soap or detergent or cleaner in this most basic form. We enjoy our extra strength, tough on stains, works fast on dirt, perfumed and scented soaps. We like to have good clean laundry that gets clean in the first wash and smells just the way we want it to and removes all of the stains and does not cost very much.

Your body builds up defenses

When your system is constantly exposed to these chemicals, then it must form antibodies and build up defenses in order to protect itself from exposure. This type of consistent bombardment is very similar to the types of emotional stress one encounters in a fast-paced, high-stress urban lifestyle, complete with mortgages, threat of job loss, and at least two children. Both physical and emotional stresses are wearing, and therefore should only occur periodically, not on a consistent regular basis. When you use eco friendly cleaning products, these earth friendly chemicals are less likely to have a reaction with your own biological functions or to trigger stress hormones and adrenaline secretion as a result. So how do you find “green” laundry products?

Safe and effective laundry is available

Envirosafe Solutions’ Extreme Green range offers fabric conditioner and softener which is non-toxic and biodegradable, as well as hard water laundry liquid and hard water laundry powder. Both of these are septic safe and require only small amount of product to get the job done, further ensuring septic and planet safety. Call Envirosafe Solutions today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Kid Friendly Green Activities

April 18, 2012 | Posted by  | Comments Off on Kid Friendly Green Activities

Dishwashing Liquid, Toilet Bowl Cleaner, Glue RemoverBetween environmental warnings posted around high schools and what parts of the news your kids understand, they can really have a negative impression of environmental concerns and what it means to be self sufficient, take responsibility for your actions and do your part to preserve the healthy and sustainability of our planet. Fortunately, there are some kid friendly green activities you can do with your offspring during their younger years, which will help them to see this lifestyle in a positive, joy-filled light.

Help them grow a plant of their own. It is recommended that you actually acquire a small, fast-growing tree or a large plant which you have started from a seedling which will mature over a summer or two, at the longest. If it is large enough at full growth, it will be sturdy enough to plant outside as a seedling and from there, you can help your children measure the tree or bush and see how tall it is, how wide it is, and how big around the trunk is from week to week and month to month. They can really view the benefits of this activity, especially when animals begin to live in or near their plant.

Help them learn how to ask the right questions. Start your kids on the right track to finding out more about ecology by training them to ask the right questions when reviewing a business, product, or service. Teach them about carbon offsets, green washing, ethical business practices, and even help them to grasp real life experience by staging debates in your living room, acting as the business owner while they interview you. Later on, you can actually arrange interviews for them to do a little home study and gain real life experience on their own.

Help them try new things and experiment. Part of the learning process is making mistakes, and it is important to teach your kids how to make mistakes in a safe environment where their creative juices are not stifled. Ask your children for ways they think that your family will be better able to protect the environment, use all seven steps of the scientific method when testing their different hypotheses, and document all of the experiments and controls for each project, so that they can learn firsthand the best ways of being eco friendly in their own homes as adults.

Help them compare and contract different cultural practices. Whether you take them traveling overseas, or you simply know a lot about history, help them learn how to research and compare different cultural practices for being eco friendly, from rice paddy ducks in China to crop fertilization in Egypt. This will give them a world perspective and it will help them to realize that being environmentally conscious is a lot bigger than their small world, and that everyone is participating in it.

Envirosafe Solutions loves to answer questions about our research and how our products are effective and earth friendly. You are welcome to use our company and products to help your children determine if what we do is actually safe and if what we do is actually environmentally conscious. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Keeping Vegan Pets

April 17, 2012 | Posted by  | Comments Off on Keeping Vegan Pets

Glue Remover, Rust ConverterIf you have a carnivore (meat eater) for a pet, such as a cat or dog, you will find that their diet may not fit very well into your own diet, if you are a vegan or vegetarian. We begin with a rather humorous commentary on a short-lived (extremely short-lived) satire in the Americas based upon making fun of the ultra-frugal vegan lifestyle of a stereotypical liberal. At various points throughout the few episodes which aired, the family is shown feeding their pet dog only vegan dog food. The dog is shown salivating and obsessively picturing meat everywhere, even entertaining the possibility of chewing on live human legs in order to satisfy his meat cravings. At various points throughout the show, a neighborhood telephone pole is shown, with notifications of all types of missing family pets, with the implication that the vegan-fed dog has caught and eaten all of them.

While this is just a satire, many vegans are unsure about how to take care of their pets in such a way that satisfies the needs of the pets, but also conforms to their own belief systems and personal views on the subject. There are two approaches to this:

The first approach shows that many people feel that their canines and felines are not negatively affected by a meatless diet as long as they are fed a complete and balanced diet, which is appropriate to their needs. This may need to include supplements, which are typically naturally found in meat. It is recommended that you get their PH levels tested, and ask your veterinarian about the appropriate care for your particular breed of dog and how an alternative diet may affect their behavior or energy requirements. It may also be noted here that carnivores such as cats and dogs tend to only eat vegetation when they are sick and need to clean out their systems. So, while vegetation is naturally eaten by carnivores, it is obviously not their first choice of food.

The second approach depicts how many vegans and vegetarians recognize that while they do not wish to eat meat themselves for various reasons, their carnivorous pets require meat as part of a balance diet and buy meat from a local butcher, sustainable source, or even pay for more expensive organic meat which was not raised on steroids or in inhumane conditions. Whichever way you choose to feed your vegan pet, the choice must be entirely up to you. Only in this way will you feel good about your final decision and feel in control of your household and pet decisions.

There are other ways to be health conscious and to be aware of the impact you have on the humans and animals around. Envirosafe Solutions offers eco friendly spill kits, waste disposal kits, disinfectants and sanitizers, in small and bulk packaging. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Keeping the Peace with Green

April 16, 2012 | Posted by  | Comments Off on Keeping the Peace with Green

Fabric Conditioner,Laundry PowderSometimes, staying green is not just about saving our beautiful earth, but also about facilitating peace, tranquility, communication and understanding between different groups and different programs for improving our sustainability.

An educational program geared toward improving both peace and eco friendliness, Art of Living, has designed a newspaper bag competition where volunteers help schools and teachers to train students on how to make cheap, easily accessible, biodegradable paper bags for shopping, carrying items, in school, as purses, and in gift giving. Rather than the teacher assigning a paper about a project, students are given instruction and materials and they learn in the real world a practical approach for turning simple everyday objects into reusable items which are sustainable and biodegradable after they are thrown away. Students are thrilled with how easy these are to make and one mother reports that her son worked on seven at one time for a period of twenty minutes. Both teachers and parents are excited about this hands-on approach to learning about protecting our environment, and many schools reported that, once the students were given the idea, they worked together and learned about peaceful creativity and community while they were working on their eco friendly bags.

Architects for Peace is an environmentally aware and socially responsible non-profit organization that is designed to help architects, landscape architects, engineers, environmentalists and urban landscape designers to build aesthetically pleasing, socially responsible cityscapes in our urban areas. Architects for Peace facilitates professionals from a wide variety of origins coming together to meet urban needs in a peaceful, cooperative environment. Originally based in Australia to potentially prevent Australia’s involvement in Iraq 2003, it is now a peace-based, global operation with professionals, volunteers and environmentalists from all parts of the world.

While being eco friendly is not synonymous with peace, the two have one thing in common: a desire to protect and flourish the efforts of the greater good. This is why Envirosafe Solution is dedicated to bringing you eco friendly applicators, pumps, hand cleaners and lubricants, as well as many other eco friendly products. We want to contribute to the greater good, and we want to help you do it, too. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Incorporating Green into Your Business Plan

April 13, 2012 | Posted by  | Comments Off on Incorporating Green into Your Business Plan

Dishwasher Powder,Disinfectant,Rust RemoverIf you are not able to “think big” in business, the idea of incorporating green into your business plan seems like a farfetched, expensive, inconvenient, and time costly enterprise. However, if you open your mind up to an infinite number of possibilities in the business world, you will see that it is quite easy to incorporate eco friendliness into your company operations. In fact, when it comes to using earth-friendly methods of operation, employees are likely to go further and work harder to accomplish the same tasks when they know of and are aware of how these new steps are helping the greater good. Personal motivation is exploited in the greater benefit for the whole business.

Common Sense

The first thing and perhaps the simplest thing in turning your business green is basically using common sense. This seems as if it would not have a great deal of impact on our environment or your energy bill, but it does. Turning out lights when you leave a room, turning down the heating or air conditioning when you leave the office, fixing cracks and insulating windows and doors, keeping parts moving smoothly and working efficiently, and simply being aware of energy sources and what you are doing are all ways in which you can contribute. Common sense is sometimes not used in certain business or manufacturing settings, because it seems a bit like parenting a child rather than running a business, but soon everyone will fall into the habit of remembering these little details, and they will add up nicely.

Replace Inefficient Energy Consumers

You may be unable to replace your entire office with a newer, greener setup, but you are able to replace old, ineffective, and inefficient forms of energy at work. Get a green energy evaluation, or just a systems evaluation, and review all of the ways in which you can update the quality of work without spending a great deal of money. Reducing carbon emissions (and advertising that you are doing this) may also boost employee morale.

Go Online

Many businesses are operating on a paperless basis. Find out how much of your company operations can be conducted online or just on a computer and start reducing your paper waste as much as possible. This also conserves a great deal of energy used to spend printing, copying, and scanning paper materials as part of your business.

While you are replacing inefficient consumption of energy, go ahead and replace the harsh, non earth friendly chemicals you use to clean the break room and the office. Envirosafe Solutions offers eco friendly sanitizers, degreasers, lubricants, and toilet treatments for your green business plan. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Happiness is in the Eye of the Beholder

April 12, 2012 | Posted by  | Comments Off on Happiness is in the Eye of the Beholder

Disinfectant, Rust Remover, Fabric ConditionerAs ecological developers seek to increase sustainability and make our planet more self sufficient, the inevitable question arises: Why bother? This is an excellent question because it facilitates a movement of epic proportions. If every human on earth sought to, in some way, improve the planet’s sustainability and their consumer products’ biodegradability and fuel efficiency, then the landscape of the world would look vastly different than it looks today. Therefore, the question, “Why bother?” must be addressed. What motivates humans to take new and innovative action on the behalf of the greater good?

First, how do you measure happiness or satisfaction?

For decades, happiness has been researched as a serious field of study. This is illustrated in The Psychology of Happiness by Michael Argyle. He has 35 pages of research citation alone, indicating that this field not only should be considered a relevant area of research, but is already thought so by many field experts. After all, if humans are unable to measure our own happiness and contentment, then how do we know what to strive for and what constitutes a job well done? In fact, we may not even be able to function as a species without internal mechanisms for measuring our own happiness next to some constant.

Argyle finds that basic human needs and the lack thereof create a greater difference in measurement than anything else. For example, in prosperous nations, individuals are not noticeably affected by added wealth. However, in countries where wealth satisfies basic human needs, then the acquisition of wealth becomes something that is very closely tied to happiness, for it fulfills basic survival requirements.

Second, how do you combine ecology with the human need to change?

When attempting to stir a citizenry into action on behalf of our planet, it is important to remember what information they already possess. Many people do not believe that their individual actions make hardly any difference to the sustainability movement and many others believe that eco friendly causes are not necessary or do not make a noticeable impact on our environment. Unfortunately, this apathy is largely due to a desire to remove oneself from political leanings, which is invariably tied to all mass movements and government reform. Therefore, it becomes important to show individuals that this is not just a political movement, but a cause which creates a healthier, safer planet for humans to live, as well as continuing eco systems and sustainability for future generations.

Envirosafe Solutions is committed to bringing you biodegradable, non-toxic products and products which are tested as earth friendly and safe to use on our planet. We carry a range of eco friendly absorbents, spill kits and degreasers, as well as kitchen products, laundry products and lubricants for both household and industrial use. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Green Traits of Natural Birthing Centers

April 11, 2012 | Posted by  | Comments Off on Green Traits of Natural Birthing Centers

Dishwashing Liquid, Toilet Bowl CleanerBirthing centers have been around for many centuries, but they are no longer as common in some first world nations. Fortunately, they still exist today in some areas and they offer an ecologically sound perspective on the process of human birth and pain management and how the whole process can be even more beneficial than what the mother and child get directly out of it. Natural birthing centers are based upon the principles that the earth and the human body both create more than enough resources to handle giving birth, and any complications arising thereof, and sustaining life on earth.

Ancient birthing centers give classes and mentor-protégé tutoring on natural birth and disease control and birthing complications, and have done so for many years. Not only is this information passed down from generation to generation, but it is often passed down through direct experience with helping mothers, and this helps the material to absorb deeply into the students memory and levels of discernment and understanding. Today, thousands of pounds of paper is used to print textbooks which are barely skimmed and sold back to campus bookstores, but natural birthing centers use their local prestige and power to pass on actual knowledge, rather than superficial guidelines.

Natural birthing centers use locally available plants and ingredients in powerful ways to accomplish healing. This stimulates the local economy, but more importantly, it motivates and actively proves to local residents how important it is for their community to remain independent and locally self sufficient. This is the greatest way in which natural birthing centers contribute to their community, because an economically independent area can withstand national politics and it can preserve ancient wisdom which has been passed down and kept undiluted for several generations.

Fortunately, for the rest of us who do not live in these communities, we have other natural examples to follow, such as the earth friendly practices upheld by Envirosafe Solutions in Perth Australia. We are a modern company with ecologically sound products and motivation to protect our environment while sustaining first world luxury. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Green Sightseeing and World Travel

April 10, 2012 | Posted by  | Comments Off on Green Sightseeing and World Travel

Fabric Conditioner,Laundry PowderAs much as you may enjoy traveling and exploring “off the beaten track”, sometimes it is just nice to be a regular tourist and to engage in general sightseeing. Unfortunately, particularly due to selfless volunteer eco friendly vacations, general tourism and sightseeing tours are seen as a waste of resources and are seen as very commercial. This does not have to be the case. This is particularly true if your “commercial” tourism uses plenty of mass transportation for tourists, which saves on fuel and energy required for travel.

Much of what has been negatively attributed to world travel and commercial tourism is not based upon sleazy tourism companies, but on individual accumulation of non-biodegradable trash and irresponsible personal accountability.

More than getting others to change their behavior, honestly and accurately changing your own behavior will set the best example and have the most influence. When people are preaching the benefits of eco friendly behavior, the first thing you notice is whether or not they practice what they preach. So, the first thing you must concentrate on is your own individual behavior and what products you use, how you dispose of them, and why you act in this manner. Doing it because you “should” is not good enough, especially if you are questioned about it. You must educate yourself on the companies you buy from and what are the best ways to dispose of recyclable materials and why these are the most effective ways.

The second thing to focus on is being exact in your details. It is easy for individuals who are raised in a consumer market to “consume” regularly and fail to keep track of their purchases, disposals, usages and reusing old or reclaimed materials. Begin with what you are packing on your journey. All of your clothing, all of your packed materials, and then work outward, paying attention to food, drinks, snacks, souvenirs, gifts, etc. If in doubt, try to access online databases and find out about reputable company histories to make sure. Part of being eco friendly during your general tourism is to keep track of your purchases, waste, and consumption.

Envirosafe Solutions focuses on selling eco friendly products to companies and industries which require earth protecting soil treatments, fuel treatments, degreasers, and sanitizers. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Green Product Efficiency and Cost Effectiveness

April 9, 2012 | Posted by  | Comments Off on Green Product Efficiency and Cost Effectiveness

Dishwashing Liquid, Toilet Bowl CleanerSometimes, we encounter something called “green-washing.” This is where a product either claims to be eco friendly and isn’t, or where a product that is eco friendly is also not very effective and requires more of the product in order to accomplish the same tasks as non-eco counterparts. For this reason, individuals who are new to ecology often find themselves disgusted and frustrated with incompetent products or equipment. This is unfortunate, since valid, safe, earth-friendly and usable equipment and materials do exist. How can you find these illusive materials and how can you be sure that they are just as effective as their non-eco counterparts? By making a list, of course…

Make your list before shopping

Before you go to the store or shop online, it is always best to know what you are looking for first. If you do not set a list of standards out beforehand, you may be tempted to settle for sub-par quality and ecologically friendly products because you are not paying attention. When shopping for cleaners, paper products, disposable products, or anything which can be found in sustainable or organic form, make a list and keep it with you at the store to evaluate what you are purchasing.

Keep it understandable

If you do not wish to research acronyms and different types of “green” certifications, then you must know what else to look for. Keep it simple and keep it understandable. Just because a product calls itself green and says that it is safe in a certain way, if you do not understand the words or acronyms being used, then do not be impressed. Sometimes, company use green-washing by stating that something is “XYZ-free” when that particular substance was banned 20 years ago, anyway. In other words, they are looking to impress you, not be honest.

Value verification

It is also a good idea to look at the quality of the product, too. If it is below your household or personal standards, then it may be a cheap quality product which is being sold at a discount in order to appear buyable. All of your eco friendly products must be good quality and up to your own standards of living.

Percentages

When you do not understand certain language on the packaging, you can bet that you will still be able to understand the percentage of recyclable products in the item. If it is mostly or completely recyclable, then it is eco friendly. If it is made out of recycled materials, then it can be recycled again. Look at the percentage of recycled material in the product and win at numbers.

Cost effectiveness

Sometimes, green-washing is not shown by a cheap quality of product, but by jacking up the price of a good quality eco friendly product. This price raising can be unreasonable and if so, it is another form of green-washing. Be careful to watch your money, as well as your disposables.

Envirosafe Solutions offers eco friendly, high quality degreasers, fuel treatments, and lubricants at a very reasonable price. Our products are industrial strength and ready for use in your home or office or factory floor. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Green Printers for Your Home or Office

April 6, 2012 | Posted by  | Comments Off on Green Printers for Your Home or Office

Dishwashing Liquid, Toilet Bowl CleanerEven office work must be kept in mind when choosing eco friendly products. Machines which require electricity, fuel, or heavy maintenance can be both costly and damaging to the earth. Fortunately, there are some options available to the office green freak. This is especially helpful for paper consuming products, such as printers and copiers.

Reduce your paper output

Before we begin our tour of green printing methods, it is always a good idea to try to reduce your need for paper products as much as possible. Some companies are able to operate entirely online. American internet service provider, Clear, runs an entirely paperless system where bills are only available in an online account and you can only receive paper copies of these bills if you print them off yourself. GreenerPrinter.com also offers reduction of paper output to only stocking and printing on paper that is recyclable, often using 100% recycled paper.

Use sustainable inks in your printer

Pixxlz.com, an eco friendly printing company, uses soy and water based inks to make sure that the printed paper is even more recyclable. Without using oil, the ink is more sustainable and can appear brighter on the paper. Pixxlz.com also uses chemical-free toner in their printing presses.

Use energy saving printers

In 2009, HP launched energy-saving printers which used only a fraction of the electrical wattage of comparable printers, as well as printing multiple document content on single pages and having an option for automatically printing on both sides of the paper, reducing paper waste and usage.

2011 brought Epson into the picture, which reduced the necessary amount of power to operate by 80% to 90%. The sleep mode of this printer also focuses on conserving energy, which reduces both energy consumption and cost of energy consumption.

Reduce carbon emissions

The 2011 Epson printer also is made with minimal usage of paint in the manufacturing process, reducing their carbon footprint by approximately 9,300 tons. Companies should always be aware of the fact that their green image, as well as their revenue, could be improved through research and development of a better, safer, and easier way to make products, particularly products with recyclable parts.

At Envirosafe Solutions, we have also done our homework and have found easy, effective, and eco friendly ways to improve your business and our planet. Our products include corrosion treatment, degreasers, and fuel treatment. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Green Marketing for your Business

April 5, 2012 | Posted by  | Comments Off on Green Marketing for your Business

Eco Friendly, Environmental Cleaning ProductsWhen you are setting up your company, it is important to be socially conscious. This not only applies if your business is advertised as eco friendly, but also if you simply wish to reduce emissions while lowering costs. There are many different ways to accomplish this, depending upon your target clientele, of course. For instance, you may wish to list the reliability and the years of experience you have had in the green marketplace if your target customers are small business owners or managers who seek reliability and stability in their business partnerships. If your target customers are looking for affordable, luxurious and comfortable overnight stays, your green marketing strategy should include beauty, inspiration, and, of course, a commitment to quality. Let us look at an example of successful green marketing which covers several different needs.

In June of 2011, Embassy Suites Chicago Downtown Lakefront, a brand of Hilton Worldwide, revealed a giant green living wall in the hotel’s sky lobby. A living wall is a vertical garden, where a wall with a unique irrigation system and features is planted with thousands of plants (three thousand eight hundred and forty, in this case) and the plants are able to grow and thrive due to the efficient irrigation setup within the wall.

Beginning at one end of the spectrum, the wall is a great way to attract environmentalists, since it provides a total oxygen supply indoors which is equivalent to 16 fourteen-foot-tall trees. This cuts down on energy spent circulating fresh air from outdoors, as well as supporting knowledge of plant growth among the community. According to Denise Eichmann, Senior Project Manager for Ambius Project Development North America, there are six species of plants on the wall, the arboricola, the hardy neon, the rex begonia, the rabbit foot fern, and the golden pothos.

Next, we move on to lightly eco-conscious hotel guests. Such a hearty support of earth friendly productivity on the part of Hilton Worldwide will be seen positively by hotel guests who wish to know that they are staying in an earth friendly (and comfortable) hotel, but who also are not interested in becoming fanatics of the subjects. This is advertising through the creation of an atmosphere which is pleasing to the customer.

Thirdly, we now address the hotel guests or visitors who are only somewhat interested in green life and preserving our planet. While they may not reap the full benefits of understanding how good for the environment and oxygen supply and energy consumption the green wall really is, they are able to enjoy its beauty. Art, gardens, and living things are all inspirational.

Envirosafe Solutions offers eco friendly absorbents, spill kits, cleaners and disinfectants. We want to contribute to the inspiration which green marketing can create for everyone. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.
