Picking out year-end gifts for any company can be a challenge, and that's especially true if your company has a commitment to sustainability. Finding something that's appropriate for everyone, easy to deliver, tastefully presented, reasonably priced AND eco-friendly can be a tall order - and it's even more challenging if you want to thank an office full of people as opposed to just one individual.

Holiday food gifts are the #1 choice for business, year in and year out. They're easily shared, they convey a festive holiday spirit and come in sizes and prices to fit any company's needs and budget. But while food itself is eco-friendly, sadly much of the packaging is not. Gift baskets often contain more filler than food, and they're bulky and expensive to ship or hand-deliver. Many food gifts and chocolates come in foiled gift boxes, which are pretty but non-recyclable.

Here's one idea that might be your perfect solution: Maple Ridge Farms nuts and candies, packaged in reusable…

Climate change is an ever debatable topic in our society. The questions of whether it is a conspiracy theory, the natural cycle of the world, or more, typically arise when it is addressed. Rather than igniting a heated debate based on theories, it is important to tackle the changes that need to be made to better our environment. Very few will debate that our country, and much of our world, is far too reliant on fossil fuels and other non-renewable energy sources. Renewable energy sources are finally becoming a common topic in the world, and people are realizing the importance of adopting them. As solar power technology advances and becomes more accessible, it is vital to look into the impact one home’s conversion to solar power can have on the world, and the potential solar power has.

One of the tools Astralux uses when proposing a solar job is what is referred to as a SAT, or Solar Assessment Tool. This uses standard predictions of energy prices, average energy use,…

Blog Action Day 2009 is upon us, with this year’s topic of discussion and debate being climate change.

The subject has been argued time and time again; it has been a highlight of U.S. Presidential and Vice Presidential debates, with of course the infamous 2008 Sarah Palin retort of:

“I’m not one to attribute every man — activity of man to the changes in the climate. There is something to be said also for man’s activities, but also for the cyclical temperature changes on our planet. But there are real changes going on in our climate. And I don’t want to argue about the causes. What I want to argue about is, how are we going to get there to positively affect the impacts?”

How can you solve a problem without understanding its real cause? For too long, too many Americans have fallen under this persuasion of “it’s not us, it’s nature.” I say “Americans” because, let’s face it, we seem to be the only country actually debating the cause and effects of climate change. Everyone else seems…

NY Times has a scary article on the dangers of ground beef and burgers.  A 22 year old lady had a severe form of food-borne illness caused by E. coli, officials traced to the hamburger that her mother had grilled for their Sunday dinner in early fall 2007.  In the end, she [...]
