EcoGreenOffice Toner Cartridges Produce 70% Less Carbon Dioxide

Bryan Beckett - EcoGreenOffice

By the advice of the EPA, EcoGreenOffice has a fully certified return and remanufacture printer cartridge program helping to reduce carbon dioxide green gases.  Our partners in the remanufacturing of toner cartridges estimate some incredible eco benefits.

Eco-Facts about EcoGreenOffice Remanufactured Cartridge Program
3.4 Million Gallons of Oil Conserved- This is the annual volume of oil saved predicted by our manufacture partners.

46,072 Tons of Cartridge Waste- Our manufacture partners take the strain off already full landfills.

EcoGreenOffice Remanufactured Cartridge Program will preserve as much oil in 3 years that was spilled in the Exxon Valdez accident.

In one year, our program will prevent enough green house gases equal to that of 638 passenger vehicles.

According to ReCharger Magazine, 300 million plastic printer cartridges end up in landfills worldwide.  EcoGreenOffice remanufactured cartridge program significantly reduces these environmental hazards. Over one pound of plastics is withheld from the waste system for every printer cartridge that is remanufactured.  Contact EcoGreenOffice to setup a free printer cartridge recycling account and to obtain custom cost saving toner programs.

Daily Office Greening Tip

Spend Smart on Green

The purchase and use of environmentally-friendly products can have a big impact, and not just on the environment. Buying green affects everything from worker safety to the bottom line.

- Products that are reusable, refillable, more durable or repairable create less waste and are more cost-effective in the long run than disposable or single-use products.
- Manufacturing recycled products uses less energy than goods made from virgin materials. Buying recycled products keeps recycling programs going and saves natural resources.
- Using energy-efficient and water-conserving products saves money and resources. When making purchasing decisions, it pays to do a little homework. Consider the following:
- Is the product less hazardous?
- Is it reusable or more durable?
- Is it made from recycled materials? Do we really need to buy a virgin product when the recycled version is just as good?
- What happens to the product at the end of its life? Can it be recycled? Will the manufacturer take the product back? Will it need special disposal?
- Does it conserve energy or water?
- Is it made from renewable plant-based raw materials?

Drive a Leaf, You're #1

Top 10 Green Cars: #1 by Kelley Blue Book

 

 With a groundbreaking combination of range, room and price, the Nissan Leaf is the first all-electric car for the masses. The EPA says the Leaf will deliver 73 miles per charge and the equivalent of 99 miles per gallon. But that's not the only thing green about the Leaf: recycled materials made from home appliances, old car parts and plastic bottles are used extensively throughout the vehicle. The limited range disqualifies the Leaf as an option for some drivers, but for those who can swing it, the Nissan Leaf is the real deal.
