Eco Friendly Museums

Rust Converter, Dishwasher PowderEcological safety and preservation is not just a new inventive technology. Being ecologically sound is an art form of keeping what we have and getting rid of what we no longer want. Just as there are museums devoted to art, music, torture, specific periods of time, machinery and petroleum/oil, there are museums and exhibition devoted to ecology. You can learn about different periods of time when ecology developed further, and you can learn how common household items which we use today improve over a decade or a century in the past. These are great learning experiences and a great way to immerse yourself in new and old ideas concerning ecological development.

The Living Museum – San Francisco

This bubble-shaped museum in San Francisco, California has a flora covered roof that acts effectively as insulation and as ventilation in one. Home to an aquarium, a planetarium and a living rainforest with free flying birds, this museum builds a deep appreciation for interaction with wildlife, plants, and our environment, not to mention the education you can get there.

Museum of Science and Industry – Chicago

The Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago, Illinois has a wonderful exhibit on its grounds, called The Smart Home. This exhibit shows an ordinary home, made of recycled and recovered materials from old government offices, and features new and innovative ways to live eco friendly in the twenty-tens. Guided tours are available for extra charge, outside of museum entry fee.

Zayed National Museum – Saadiyat Island

The Zayed National Museum on Saadiyat Island, Abu Dhabi is extraordinarily made, featuring flexible, moving wings which allow the building to be ventilated and save on both heating and air conditioning. The structure itself is a landmark and gives the skyline an amazing and dramatic flourish.

Museum Victoria – Victoria

The Museum Victoria in Victoria, Australia houses a deeply rich variety of ecological studies, including extensive marine taxonomy. Taxonomy is the study of classification of organisms, and Victoria Museum has a vast collection of marine invertebrates, crustaceans, worms and fish and also studies how these creatures change over time and how ocean projects along the coasts of Australia affect marine life and sustainability.

The study of ecology is one in which one enters a world of former documentation and future invention in order to understand how changes and emerging patterns affect earth ecosystems which we wish to keep intact. Envirosafe Solutions distributes eco friendly and safe dishwashing liquid and powder, industrial strength degreasers, and septic safe toilet treatments. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Green Home Keeping

Green home keeping is such a beneficial way of keeping your family and our planet healthy. From laundry detergent to dishwasher fluid and from disinfectants to sanitizers, your home is filled with harsh chemicals which you and your family may use even on a daily basis. While chemical compounds are good and can be used effectively to keep your home in working condition, it is a pretty good idea to check out the labels and warnings on the back of your bottles and packages. Chances are that prolonged contact with these chemicals causes damage and if that’s the case, then perhaps short-term contact with your body (not to mention your plumbing!) may also not be as beneficial as it could be.

Respiratory problems in children

A study done on household chemicals describes how contact, especially prolonged contact, with chemicals can cause respiratory, breathing and wheezing problems in children, particularly from infancy to the age of seven years old.

Green chemicals can help through many methods

For instance, chemicals on the floor can be touched by playing children, or even ingested by infants or pets. Chemical residue on counters, lavatories and tabletops are no less dangerous, especially for toddlers who frequently pick up or touch objects and then put them in their mouths. Chemical irritants on otherwise normal clothes can cause rashes or abrasions, particularly in family members who suffer from even a minor allergy. Eco friendly household chemicals can reduce this damage and reduce the likelihood that children or adults will be affected by ordinary cleaning products.

Envirosafe Solutions has many eco friendly cleaning products from which to choose

For your laundry needs, we carry fabric conditioner, as well as hard water laundry liquid and powder. For the kitchen, we have dishwasher liquid and powder, as well as a rinse aid, and a commercial kitchen degreaser. We carry Extreme Green Disinfectant, which handles all of your household sanitizing needs, and we even have our special eco friendly toilet bowl cleaner.

Eco friendly products are safe and just as easy to use as your regular harsh household chemicals. Call Envirosafe Solutions today for your green cleaning products: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Green Funerals

Many highly eco supportive people are aware of their daily contribution to the needs and the waste of the planet. They live their lives being aware of and measuring their every move, making sure that they are leaving behind as small of a non-sustainable footprint as possible. For these strong supporters of ecology, a green funeral at the end of their days may seem like a just and correct way to leave this earth. How does one go about having a green funeral and is it complicated or simple to do?

Planning ahead and keeping up-to-date

It is considered a courtesy to those left behind to have your estate in order before you go. This includes making funeral plans, if you choose to have a decision in that process. If you wish to have a green funeral, it is a good idea to go ahead and make these arrangements yourself. In addition to that, it is also a good idea to make alterations to this plan as you learn more and better ways to be eco friendly and have a green funeral.

Pick a cemetery

Some cemeteries offer straight burial without a casket, but these are few and far between, and that is illegal in some countries. However, it is possible to more easily find a cemetery which allows you to present a biodegradable casket and to be buried in all of your biodegradable glory.

Pick a burial method

In the case of direct burial, this is of course the most earth friendly way to go if that option is available to you. However, some people may still choose to use a casket just for the “ick” factor of being more readily accessible to underground critters. Whichever path your choose, remember that even eco friendly burial caskets are not as sealed or odorless as regular sealable caskets, so you might keep this in mind when choosing your funeral ceremony. This may also be significant with regard to how deep you are being buried, since some wild animals may still be able to discern a scent.

Plan an eco friendly funeral

You may wish to not be too fussy with regard to your funeral arrangements. This is especially true if your family member have expressed concern about you using an “alternative” casket. You never know what may offend or surprise someone. It may be a good idea to keep it low key and relatively low maintenance out of consideration for your survivors.

Rest assured

Now that you have made the arrangements to leave behind as small of an impact as possible on your environment, you can return to the land of the living and continue your earth friendly practices up here. There are many ways to live a green lifestyle, but one of the most significant is investing in truly effective and eco friendly purchases.

Envirosafe Solutions offers safe, earth friendly kitchen dishwashing liquid and rinse aid and laundry powder and liquid and fabric conditioner. Live a greener happier life today through the use of our fine products. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Examples of Green Architecture

Green architecture exists both to inspire sustainable ideas and ways of living, and to act in a functionary capacity, to reduce heating and cooling costs. Some green architecture is entirely manmade, but uses an ecological lever, such as solar panels, to stay efficient. Some architecture uses actual plants as part of the decorating theme, and some ecological architecture uses plants as part of its living, breathing functionary capacity, such as with green roofs. Solar panels and wind turbines, as well as batteries to save extra collected energy, can all be used in architecture in an aesthetically pleasing and architecturally sound way.

Green Roofs

These examples of green roofs are perfect for the do-it-yourself builder, craftsman, or starting architect. One of the main problems with manmade architecture is that it only serves as a barrier, and does not react to outside temperature changes and can also be quite stuffy in both winter and summer due to its static form. Green roofs take the guesswork out of this, forming a dynamic atmosphere within, while reacting appropriately the environment without. Live roofs can reduce cooling costs during summer and heating costs during winter, taking it a step further than just ordinary tile and tar roofs and just ordinary insulation.

Beautiful Solar Energy

One of the greatest problems with using solar energy is how it can appear from the outside. Nobody wishes to have those great big honking ugly industrial looking panes on top of or sticking out of their roof. Fortunately, the invention of better solar panels also came with another bonus. Stunning, beautiful looking solar panels, which can be arranged and patterned on the roof, even made to look like part of the roof tiles themselves, are the latest technology in solar paneling. This must have been the creative of an art student turned architectural design major.

Wind and Speed

When you are racing down the highway at night, it is a cool thought that you might be able to turn that speed into more energy to light your way. Number five on the blog linked below depicts turbine highway streetlights, which are designed specifically for high-wind areas. This is especially useful for areas which are already powered by wind turbines, as the wind is not used up just because it made the turbines move or rotate. On the contrary, these highway wind turbines can use heavy fast traffic and high wind areas to light your way, even if other wind turbines are in the area.

Eliminate Greenwashing

StopGreenWash.org is a site devoted to investigating and portraying companies which are claiming to be eco friendly, but which are actually just trying to improve their green image and pull in ecologically concerned customers. Their motto is “clean up your act, NOT your image.” While this is all very well and good, one wonders what the average person can do to prevent themselves from falling into the greenwashing laundry cycle? It is not just a matter of researching companies. It is a matter of paying attention, all the time.

Greenwashing stems from poor products and poor advertising. When a company has a great product, then word-of-mouth is likely to help them get it off the ground, but poor advertising can make sure that they fall back down again. Vice versa, poor products with a great advertising campaign still do not have a good reputation and soon advertising funding runs out. Typically, companies which have poor services and poor advertising are desperate for a good image to spin to the public.

Greenwashing stems from big ideas combined with poor money management. Individuals who have great ideas for starter eco friendly companies may not possess a realistic view of the money involved or of how they should utilise the money they have in order to make their dream a reality. The result is good advertising of a good idea, but of what will end up being a bad result.

Greenwashing stems from incompetency in product manufacturing. When a company owner understands how a high quality product can be manufactured to produce a low priced and extremely effective service, then they do not need to spin their green image or even use the slightest amount of advertising deceit, because they will always be in business, no matter what. Poor manufacturing, new manufacturing costs, product recall and product redesign can bankrupt someone who is not savvy with numbers and has a working knowledge of successful manufacturing techniques.

Envirosafe Solutions offers eco friendly degreasers, sanitisers, and lubricants, along with a 30-day money back guarantee, so that you can find out for yourself just how effective our products really are. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Eco Friendly Furniture

Whether you are planning furniture for your office or your home, it is always a good idea to keep the health of our planet in mind while doing so. This is for several reasons. First of all, you probably do not wish to expose your skin or your respiratory system directly to objects which may still bear traces of harsh chemical cleaners or dyes from the manufacturing process. Secondly, you may wish to contribute to the health of our planet through your monetary donation, in which case you can do this through regular everyday purchases which you are making anyway. Lastly, if you are an enthusiastic environmentalist, then you are probably always looking for a great way to decorate and fill your home with eco friendly, biodegradable products.

There is the really useful kind of furniture.

Philips Design Probes has completed a fully functioning closed ecological system, called Microbal Home. There is a table, above which is a garden and a larder, and a paternoster which uses bacterial enzymes to help with recycling, right in your home. There is a methane digester, which uses human waste solids, as well as kitchen vegetable waste solids, to create methane gas which can power a set number of functions in the home. There is that much more off of your energy bill each month! Everything is based upon bacteria and the manner in which it breaks down matter to create energy, as well as how the entire system fits together to create this enclosed ecological environment.

Then there is the upcycled furniture.

Upcycled furniture just means that when an object loses its value in its original function, it can still be used for a different function while gaining back some value. For example, you can upcycle a bureau dresser into a desk. A Vespa scooter was turned into an indoor laptop display stand and book stand. Parts of tables can be turned into an elaborate and elegant looking set of shelves for a small enclosed space. Vintage tea packing crates can create an interesting effect for the fronts of cabinetry and drawers in your kitchen. Even an old suitcase can be dismantled, stuffed and upholstered to create a fascinating chair or stool as an accent piece in your home.

Finally, there is just the plain old recycled furniture.

After all the materials have been reclaimed and all of the furniture has been upcycled into something new, and finally everything has broken down and is no longer usable, you can still recycle the materials so that everyone can still enjoy the beauty and splendor (and good conscience) of using our earth’s natural resources well. After all, good stewardship is the primary goal of being eco friendly.

At Envirosafe Solutions, we love responsible, caretaking behavior which keeps the resources of our beautiful planet in mind at all times. Learn more about our safe, eco friendly cleaners, corrosion treatments and lubricants by calling us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Eco Friendly Cruises of the Future

As citizens of earth, the consumer market is not only based upon the principles of supply-and-demand, but also on the principles of successfully maintaining current or better qualities of lifestyles. This becomes a problem when earth sustainability is in direct conflict with a particular habit or lifestyle practice, such as taking vacations. Now, travelers everywhere are looking up eco friendly vacations, volunteer vacations, and green cruises on search engines, and their options are few and far between. However, in order to create a demand to later supply, we must first know what we want out of a green cruise. Here are some ideas:

1. Green cruises should use 100% bio fuel. Bio fuel is combustible, usable fuel which is comprised of organic material which can be harvested and planted at any time. In other words, bio fuel is made out of sustainable material.

2. Green cruises should have 100% cotton or sustainable bedding. This is especially true for any type of cruise ship or resort which handles massive amounts of bulk materials on a regular basis.

3. Green cruises should offer visits to ecologically sound ports. Many a traveler has been gypped out of their hard earned money by spam tourist attractions, and this principle also applies to supporting local economies.

4. Green cruises should use renewable energy. Now, on a cruise ship, energy must be renewable to a certain extent in order to accommodate the massive amounts of electricity used for entertainment, filtration systems, and electronic equipment.

5. Green cruises should make travelers aware of their eco friendly efforts. There is no point in setting a good example, if nobody knows about your example. This will cause passengers to think about what else it would take to make a good green cruise.

6. Green cruises should be transparent. Many business practices are able to be transparent economically by revealing basic accounting information without revealing specific trade secrets. Passengers or potential passengers will have more faith in a cruise ship which strives to make them feel comfortable, both in luxury and in ecological donations.

Eco Friendly Company Mergers

Company mergers typically involve combining assets, laying off “redundancy” in employment, and in securing greater financial protection through the combination of the best of both companies. Usually, mergers equal greater income for partners and executive staff, and equal possible job loss for employees. For this reason, mergers can be viewed with mixed emotions. Even partners may potentially be giving up control if they are members of the subordinate company. However, if a company merger is actually happening or being considered, there are ways in which earth-friendly endeavors can be incorporated into your new merger.

You can combine resources.

Sometimes, company mergers allow both organizations to function autonomously but to process joint ventures when they feel it necessary or beneficial. In this case, the resources from both companies can be organized, defined, and easily combined to produce higher quality products, and benefits which include the best of both enterprises, such as an eco friendly tech company merging with a building contracting company to produce sustainable houses with reclaimed materials and state-of-the-art green technology.

You can improve the image of both operations.

Sometimes, when a business fails to be seen as a well-rounded operation by customers, a company merger can be beneficial to establish a better customer perspective. Companies, especially those in the consumer market, know that perspective equals reality with regard to customers. When two companies, which are each seen as 80% rounded by customers can merge in such a way as to successfully overlap this perception, then it is a great money-making opportunity. An example would be a company which caters to customers intolerant to green operations merging with a highly reputable green company.

You can drastically reduce carbon emissions.

By merging a green operation with your company, or by merging two green companies, technological secrets, innovations, and workload can be shared between the two, resulting in a more purified directive and business goal for whatever type of organization you are running. From lumber mills to computer repair stores to interior design partnerships, eco friendly mergers can be an important part of making our planet a better place.

Detoxify From Carbon Fuels

While carbon emissions are affecting our oceans, our ozone layer, our air, and our plant life, they are also affecting our bodies. Therefore, it is a good idea to know some effective ways of detoxifying from carbon emissions. Our respiratory systems, our bloodstream, and our skin are all affected by harsh chemicals and should be treated accordingly. What are some things which you can try which may eliminate toxins in your body?

Cleaning your respiratory system

Your respiratory system is affected by your immune system, so it is a good idea to strengthen both. Drinking aloe vera gel and fruit and vegetable juices help to rebuild decaying or weakened cells, especially if you are a smoker. Another method that is very popular is loosening dried and stuck-on particles within your respiratory system by spending regular weekly (three times a week is recommended) times in a hot sauna, breathing in the hot humid clean air. This also helps your cells and your respiratory system to become more flexible and resilient to harsh chemicals or outside toxins.

Cleaning your bloodstream

Your bloodstream protects you from radiation, repairs damages cells, and carries oxygen to all parts of your body. Therefore, a good strong blood cleansing is highly recommended. Fasting helps to detoxify your body from chemicals which are regularly ingested and regularly inhaled. Whether or not you choose to fast, drinking liquid chlorophyll is also high advantageous, since it strengthens red blood cells and vein and artery walls, making them more resilient and flexible. To pull out build up on your vein and artery walls, many alternative therapy followers use an ion cleanse, which is a footbath that draws solid impurities directly out of the feet and into the water.

Cleaning your skin

Your skin is your largest organ and it serves many functions, from protecting inner tissue to regulating bodily temperatures to eliminating toxins through its porous surface. Skin is elastic and resilient and easily repaired. However, proper skin cleansing and purification is necessary in order to not allow things to become all clogged up and stiff. So, one of the first things you can do is mix plenty of oil and water in the foods you eat. Skin is one of the few places on earth where oil and water coexist and mingle happily, so be sure to plenty of good fat like whole butter, whole fresh milk and drink plenty of water. Many people enjoy drinking raw milk, since the coagulants are better absorbed through the body when they are in their original form. However, that is subject to discretion, since raw milk is unpasteurized and un-homogenized, which some may find to be risky.

Envirosafe Solutions believes that the planet should reduce carbon emissions, because this affects us directly as humans. As part of this movement, we offer eco friendly disinfectants, sanitizers and soil treatments for your green needs. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Cell Development in Ecological Families

Did you know that being ecological helps your family to grow better and stronger cells in their bodies? This is partially accepted by holistic treatment specialists and partly accepted by people who first make the change to “greener” household. You can feel the difference in your body when it is not being bombarded by harsh chemicals throughout the day. Your cells feel different, you feel stronger and healthier, and you are more likely to use hygienic cleaning compounds when they are not hazardous under direct contact with skin.

Cells consist of several important functions. They must have the ability to reproduce. They must have a cell way which protects the cell from unwanted bacteria and viruses. It must have the ability to intake nutrition and turn it into energy which fuels the cell and keeps it alive. And, lastly, cells must be able to eliminate waste and toxins.

In an eco friendly family, cells are allowed to respond to organic growth and bacteria in a natural way. They are allowed to develop naturally occurring antibodies and their immune systems become more resilient over time. This is not the case when harsh chemical agents and heavy petroleum based antibacterial gel is used. Rather than allowing cells to form antibodies, the chemicals destroy infectious agents themselves, sterilize universally, and bombard the system with toxic or potentially toxic contact.

Another reason why eco friendly household and industrial chemicals should be used is that petroleum based chemicals, which are numerous and varied in our daily lives, often clog cells’ ability to eliminate toxins and waste effectively. Unfortunately, this is a part of body care which does not receive a great deal of attention, medically or holistically, since elimination is usually considered to be a gentle type of cleansing, rather than a form of bodily housecleaning which allows cells to return to their youthful elasticity.

Eco friendly families will find plenty of benefit in making their entire household green. They will lead more sustainable lives, their cost of fuel will decrease, and their bodies will feel much more youthful and vibrant due to the absence of petroleum based chemicals which neither benefit the human body nor are biodegradable to our earth.

Breeding Bugs Can Make Clean Detergent

Well, we all learned about surfactants and how to chemically remove oils and fats from a greased up surface when we took chemistry class in high school. However, man-made surfactants operate on a much more massive scale than their eco friendly counterpart, biological surfactants, which operate on a microscopic scale, allowing detergent manufacturers to pull their production lines away from crude oil manufacturing and toward truly sustainable practices. Biological surfactants which come from plant oil and various extracts from bugs are already getting the job done, according to researchers. So why isn’t every detergent manufacturer taking advantage of this?

So far, breeding plants and bugs en masse has been difficult to do, and it yields a very low amount of substance by which to turn into detergent production. In other words, the process already works and is highly effective, but a lot of bugs and plants are needed in order to make the process complete, and all of them produce a very small amount of eco friendly detergent. This is nowhere near the amount of detergent in demand from the consumer markets, and it is nowhere near the amount of detergent which is produced every year to satisfy this demand. This, in turn, makes manufacturing costs really expensive, which is not an incentive for any company to continue growing eco friendly.

Suzanne Zibek, who is a technical biologist at the Fraunhofer Institute for Interfacial Engineering and Biotechnology IGB, Germany, says, “If we want natural surfactants to conquer the mass market, we need to increase fermentation yields.” Zibek went on to state that her team can produce microbial surfactants based upon renewable resources, such as plant oils and sugar. Even bumblebee nectar, which is obviously a warm sugar, can produce yeast which can be refined to make sophorose lipid, which is a natural additive which researchers are using in detergents.

Bettering Maritime Green Operations

Multi Purpose Lubricant, Fuel ConditionerVarious navies around the world are working on their “green” operations and attempting to make their seafaring movements as healthy for our planet as possible. This has been especially true since many publicized accounts of oil and contaminants spilling into our oceans. Public concern is growing, not only for accidental spills in our oceans, but also for the fuel which is used in transportation at sea that can mix with the air and with the water, double contaminating the water. It has been found through multiple studies that carbon pollution in the air mixes with oxygen in the water, polluting our oceans, as well. What are some ways in which every navy or marine operation throughout many countries can improve their eco friendly ocean treatment?

You can use eco friendly cleaning products to clean and sanitize seafaring vessels

Envirosafe Solutions creates eco friendly cleaning solution, degreasers, and sanitizers, not to mention “green” glass cleaner. These are available in bulk amounts. When harsh, non-green chemicals are used where they will be washed off or emptied as waste into our ocean, then it becomes very important with what we are cleaning our ships and seafaring vessels.

You can use alternative fuel and combinations of alternative fuel and petroleum based fuel in your marine vessels

Let’s face it: nearly every marine vessel contains petroleum based engines, which are exclusively designed to burn petroleum based fuel. This is something, which can be changed over many decades, but it is not possible to simply replace all of these engines right away. It would be too costly, and different vessels need different types of engines to burn alternative fuel, which takes a great deal of time to test and manipulate and successfully design.

You can design “green” vessels, which operate off of 100% sustainable fuel

A special type of boat called the Earthrace powerboat can run on 100% biodiesel and is specially designed for that purpose, to run just like any other seafaring vessel. The main purpose of the Earthrace powerboat has been to publicize how fast it can go and that it is comparable to other ships, even while running entirely off of biodiesel. This is one of the few seafaring vessels on earth, which is designed to run entirely off of sustainable fuel. The U.S., Australian, British, and several other navies are searching for ways to accomplish this with maritime ships.

Envirosafe Solutions is designing eco friendly products such as radiator liquids, fuel treatments, glass cleaner, and disinfectants. We want to be part of the green movement. Call us today:(+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Being Transparent in Business

Dishwashing Liquid, DisinfectantYou set up your business, you manage your assets, you gain and retain clients or customers, and things seem to be going great. Then, you find that you should be practicing ethical business transparency. What does that mean, and how can you implement it effectively in your own company?

Business transparency does not mean that you must give away all of your trade secrets or that you must reveal all private personnel information to the public. It means that you must be able to account for your business operations, where your money has gone and that your taxes have been paid, and you must be able to account for employee activity on a pretty consistent basis. This ensures that your business is not being used as a front or a cover-up for illegal or unethical activity.

Begin with green. One of the best ways to initiate good healthy amounts of transparency is to implement an ecologically sensitive goal for your business plan. This allows outsiders to see your business as a safe place that is worth investing in and that is worth exploring further. Remember, you WANT people to investigate your business. The more they know about it, the more popular your products and services are.

Advertise what you use. Many reputable companies advertise the brands and products they use in their regular business operations. Use eco friendly products in your business and tell your clients what you are doing. We recommend our Extreme Green range of products.

Form highly personal relationships. Your greatest fear in becoming a transparent business may be fear of criticism from clientele or customers. After all, if they do not like what they see, they may tell you, and there is no way to escape from that. Famous actors and actresses went to one hundred rejected tryouts for every one accepted tryout. You must have that same level of toughness and ability to handle criticism, complaint and possible rejection. One of the ways in which you can work on that is to form personal and deeply friendly relationships with your clientele in order to make them feel more at ease and in order to gently train yourself to hear and take criticism well. Remember, justification may get in the way of that, so try to listen quietly and respectfully.

Stick to your guns. While you are navigating transparency in business, there may be quite a few good ideas out there that seem good to adopt. Do not adopt these ideas right away, but be wise and discerning. More importantly, once you have found a system that works well for you, stick to your guns. In other words, remain strong. You chose your particular modus operandi because it has proven effective for you. Try to not be swayed by outside influence too easily.

Envirosafe Solutions offers safe, eco friendly cleaning liquids, degreasers, sanitizers and rust removers for your home and industrial needs. Please feel free to check out our website at any time to learn more about our products and what we can do for you.

Dishwashing Liquid, DisinfectantAn Australian resources company, CWH Resources, has decided to convert their manufacturing operations into a company which explores and mines green and “clean” materials, such as uranium and gold. They wish to increase relationships with China and Chinese engineers and geologists, and to develop an export market in China to ship their mined gold. And what is the benefit to China? Gold acts as a hedge against Chinese inflation, according to Mr. Bao Cheng Luo, who is the executive chairman of CWH Resources. In other words, they wish to create jobs in Australia through mining, and create an export market for mined materials in China, ensuring revenue and future demand.

While the mining industry worldwide has taken quite a few hits for not always being eco friendly, it is encouraging for specific international mining companies to take an interest in mining for non-polluting materials, both for reasons of public policy and for earth friendly goals. It certainly changes the value of stock for publicly traded companies, since eco friendly renovations, overhauls and practices are seen as new hope for the future and may be more likely to draw in or at least tempt potential investors.

When a layperson thinks of mining, they sometimes jump mentally to the picture of mining petroleum based materials and this impression can taint the mental image of the entire mining industry in a person’s mind, especially coupled with the fact that some illegitimate mining companies rack in huge amounts of money at the cost of workers’ safety and lives. This image is inaccurate, and earth friendly or non-polluting activities undertaken by various enterprises in the mining industry must be commended and publicized as much as possible. These are very real efforts on the part of a very powerful industry to reduce or completely eliminate their carbon footprint and bring a cleaner, safer tomorrow to all of us.

Australian Mining and Land Deals in Fiji

Dishwashing Liquid, DisinfectantA previously undeveloped area in Fiji filled with copper ore, one of the largest in the world, was recently acquired by Newcrest Mining, an Australian mining company which possesses over a seventy percent stake in the proposed mine. The area set aside for the mining development lies just northwest of Suva and would bring in a great many Fijian jobs, both temporary and permanent employment, and stimulate the local economy which is sore need of repair, anyway. However, concerns about waste disposal and infecting local water supply and the flood plain which lies downstream from the area are making some protest over the proposed mining operation.

On the one hand, the Fijian economy could use the boost from the two thousand temporary jobs which would be filled, and the later thousand permanent job positions which would be available. Since this is one of the richest untapped deposits on the globe, it is not surprising that any mining company would want to take advantage of their majority stake in the operation, and set up and get started. Perhaps, the reason why it has not been started prior to this time has been for research on how to handle the flooding problem and the potential toxicity which would need to be alleviated from the mining operations in their waste materials disposal.

On the other hand, toxicity and waste from a copper mine would be very poisonous and the area must be thoroughly documented and researched to make sure that this will not affect the water supply, the flood plain which lies downstream of the proposed mine site, or the inhabitants which live near the flood plain. Even the increase is waste disposal from such a large project site, and it should be reiterated that this is one of the largest undeveloped areas for copper, could cause a strain of volume only on the local waste system, not to mention the affects it may have on ecological systems which are native to that area.

It is a project which must be studied and researched carefully and thoroughly before started in such a potentially critical area.

Envirosafe Solutions has devoted just as much study and research over our earth friendly corrosion treatments and lubricants. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.
