Green is The Word, Act XXIX

Mighty Good Friday!

Can’t cha smell that smell?!

With the intoxicating scent of jasmine wafting through
our neighborhood this spring, the High Priest has been
wishing for the same in an eco kind of way for His
notoriously favorite room- the restroom.

For those who leave their “scent” in His sanctuary,
EcoTimber is now featuring a spray that offers some
ecological benefit, as well as comfort for the next
visitor.

The manufacturer, SC Johnson, was one of the first
manufacturers in Michigan to use wind power,
approximately 31.5 million kilowatt hours annually.
This is enough energy to power 46 percent of the
company’s Bay City operations. To get a better
perspective, the energy saved is comparable to the
energy needed to supply 1800 average homes a year,
and the CO2 reduction is equivalent to taking almost
3000 cars off of the road annually.

They’ve also developed the Greenlist process to help
their scientists

in choosing raw materials that are more biodegradeable
and have a better environmental or health profile.
Reformulating Windex glass cleaner with Greenlist
removed 1.8 million pounds of VOC’s AND increased the
cleaning power by 30 percent!

And within the United States, they recycle 93% of all
solid waste from manufacturing including paper,
corrugate, plastic, glass and steel materials.

Last, but not least, a recent addition became one of
the first LEED-registered new construction buildings
in Wisconsin.


Praise be to the Almighty.......stinker.
