Goal For The Green

No, I don’t mean your computer.  There there’s a good website called -haveUrebooted.com, where you can get a free mail-in label or  find a drop- off location near you.

Did you know cell phones are one of the least recycled electronics in the world?  Over 100 million go out of use every year in the US alone.   They are horrible for the environment, if they get thrown away, and every part of them can be recycled.

Many of us reboot, when we upgrade or change carriers.  Most of the cell phone stores are drop-off locations, or are participating in the reboot program.  So, why reboot?  Well,  it’s free and easy, it’s green and good for the environment, and it saves energy.   When you recycle your cell phone, it helps recover valuable materials used in the manufacturing process.  It  also helps prevent unnecessary mining of these raw materials, that can be reused.

The EPA has targeted recycling cell phones, because as hard as it may be to believe, only 10% of all cell phones are recycled each year.  This is because most people don’t know where to recycle them.  By recycling cell phones, we are making a significant contribution to help save the environment.  It is also beneficial to those in need, even our soldiers overseas.  In fact, recycling just a million cell phones, reduces greenhouse gas emissions, equivalent to taking 33 cars off the road for a year.  A “green” step in the right direction.

At haveurebooted.com, you can host a reboot fundraiser for your organization, or you can request to have a reboot drop-off box at your place of business.  You can even register to win reboot gift cards, valued at up to $500!  But, it doesn’t end there.   You can get your creative juices flowing, and create an original commercial about recycling cellphones.  Then, you post it in response to the HaveUrebooted video at You-tube.  If your video is chosen, you could win a Dell laptop!

So, clean out your junk drawer, recycle (reboot) that old cell phone, and get creative, and most of all have FUN!  Here’s to you and working toward a better tomorrow!

GreenCulture offers eco-friendly products, that are made from recycled materials, or that come from renewable and sustainable sources.  Enlightened Products is also something else they feature. These products may or may not be made with 100% eco-friendly products.  However, this company carries these type of products anyway, because they believe they are comparatively better for our environment, than similar products currently marketed.

Perhaps you are wanting to liven up or change your decor.  One of the simplest and most economical ways to do that is by using an area rug.  GCrugs.com, is home to one of the largest selections of area rugs on the web.  There diverse collection, brings you both selection and variety in many shapes and sizes.

The philosophy of how this ” green” company, prefers to do business really caught my attention.  For this reason I think they will be around for quite some time to come, because they have an open and workable relationship with the manufacturers they do business with.

“At GREENCulture, we strive for a 100% planet friendly product mix. Manufacturers, however, many times make wonderful products which do not meet the stricter portions of our criteria. Manufacturers always LISTEN when we ask them to modify their products to be more in line with our environmental and enlightened products mission. However, manufacturers CHANGE their manufacturer processes and materials only when we show to them that we can send them a large volume of business. They know that we are a small and growing company, committed to making great changes but the volume of business we direct to them does not justify modifying their manufacturing processes to achieve our strict goals. We know that with the help and support of our customers, we will continue to grow, and as we do so we’ll work with our manufacturers to modify their manufacturing processes to get closer to meeting our strict criteria. ”

Based in Lake Forest, CA   Green Culture, promotes environmental conservation through sales of diverse environmentally-friendly furniture, lighting, rugs, compost and gardening products.   They are strictly an online based company, that also welcomes phone orders.  Another plus that they pride themselves for,  is that they can deliver anyhwere in a timely and effective manner.  Here’s to your making greener choices and working toward a better tomorrow.

That’s right!  She has only been gracing my blog for 96 days, yet she has proven herself to be very welcoming and popular.  She’s been a good luck charm and inspired many green articles, as well as helped me cover everything from the odds of autism, to diet and autism, the gas crisis, and much more.

She is such a wonderful people greeter, that I decided to name my power mall after her.

My Ladybug Mall

Did  you know that 70% of people on-line have a disability?  Many others are looking for ways to make money on-line, supplement their income, or quit their day job.  I took this decision very seriously and searched hard to find the right things to put on my blog.  I think I made the right choice with my power mall.  Soon, there will be other money making ideas showing up here also.

If you’re looking for a business opportunity, I’m so glad because it means you want to change your life. I’m sure you already know how important it is to find that right opportunity. When I started looking for a business I knew that 97% of people who try to find financial freedom through a home-based business fail so I knew whatever I chose had to be different!

There were certain “Givens.”

o It had to be FREE so every person who wanted to change their lives would have a chance.

o It had to be simple.

o It had to take away all the “business games” that kept most people from succeeding in a home-based business.

The “Givens” were answered when I found MY POWER MALL!

I’m not going to take time to explain it because MY POWER MALL has created some powerful movies and a great website that will do just that. I will tell you it is totally new, totally FREE, very simple, and can be done in conjunction with anything else you are doing to generate financial freedom. You could easily be making $4 – 6000 a month, but your income potential is unlimited. Interested?
