Thanks for the props. "Competing markets"... do you run Mountain Rose Herbs? Very nice site as well right there, I like their emphasis on organics / zero waste / sustainability. We\'ve been pushing many of our clients in that direction, for example offering recycled stock at the same price as UV glossy coated.

Actually... lol... http://www.pelland.com/green.htm

You gotta try that Hu-Kwa though...  and there\'s only one place to get it ;)

I\'m just a happy customer of mrh. I will have to get the Hu-Kwa. I\'m loving Yerba Mate as well.

Great job on the "Green" for certain aspects, although, as for paper recycling, I don\'t much agree. The bi products (chemical waste and machinery usage) of recycling paper is far worse. Bleaches have dioxins. Plus, we have plenty of well-sustainable tree farms.
Come to think of it, many plastics that are recycled are also contributing to some even nastier poisonous bi products.

I am down for re-use, and recycling glass and metals.

Hmmm. I may look into getting our printers to source sustainably-farmed tree paper instead. Thanks for the food for thought. It\'s certainly not just about the "image" of being eco-friendly to us, especially if that means we may actually be making things worse!

Now that\'s Green$en$e!   It\'s interesting how much of a "business" recycling has become. Who would\'ve thought they were actually creating more issues? Tree farms are where it\'s at, then let the paper decompose.

Speaking of making paper, paper mills smell.

So wait, can I get swine flu by eating bacon?

What about by talking to a cop?
