Why Change? ("The Cost of Unconsciousness")

Over the last two centuries we've severely abused most of our planet's natural resources. The results can be seen in the heavy pollution of our water, by the hazardous levels of toxins in our air, increase in diseases related to toxicity, and by the massive waste disposal problems we deal with day in and day out.

If you are in business and use manufacturing, packaging products or haven't implemented a recycling program yet, here are some not-so-simple facts you may be interested in.

PAPER Americans throw away enough office paper each year to create a wall 12 ft. high reaching from L.A. to New York City.

RECYCLING By recycling all of your newspaper for only one year, you could save an estimated 4 trees and 2,200 gallons of water and stop 15 pounds of pollutants from entering our air. When you recycle soda cans, the energy used and air pollution created is 95% less than if cans are produced from raw materials.

NON-ORGANIC COTTON is the number one user of pesticides in the world, contaminating the air, water, land and field-workers on all major continents. In the U.S., non-organic cotton growers account for well less than 10% of total crop production and well over 25% of the total pesticides use.

STYROFOAM can take up to 500 years to break down in the landfill.

If you purchase products and services from people who operate without accountability and/or are using child labor or devastating the planet through heavy pesticide use or deforestation, you may make higher profits and meet your bottom line...in some cases. But if you're ready to meet a higher standard (a "top line" if you will) we at eco-resolutions are ready to work with you to incorporate sustainable alternatives while still adhering to a determined profit margin

Most individuals and companies simply don't know where to begin their transition to more environmentally safe and conscious practices.

This is precisely where eco-resolutions can help. We will match your goals and desires for change with our commitment to build more than business. Together, we will build a community where the sales point isn't measured only by price, it's also calculated by the positive effect on the environment.
