We bet you were expecting something gross, right? Instead, we want to brag about the value of saving our planet. In our eyes, this is not a political statement. It’s an economic statement (we get paid for recycling) and about basic respect for Mother Nature. To us, it’s a no-brainer.

But before we brag, we’d like you to know that we will be sharing all of our tips in an upcoming article, with the hope that you can try some green initiatives, save money and be kind to the environment at the same time.

So, here are the hard numbers, In March alone (April figures soon to come), our efforts to recycle every scrap of paper and cardboard resulted in us recycling 62,130 lbs. of recyclable paper. That’s 31 tons! Think of it as 31 small cars in weight. Just from our one company. If you would join us, think of the impact.

So, to put it in practical terms, what does our one-month’s effort save? This will blow you away:

528 trees
11,805 gallons of oil
217,455 gallons of water
149,112 Kilowatt Hours of energy
3,106 cubic yards of landfill space

Our green efforts earn us the designation below: certified by the National Association for Information Destruction. And, even better, the entire document recycling is guaranteed to protect confidentiality by destroying any recognition of content.

Let me know if you are interested in joining us in this green effort, and I’ll pass along details of what we do. Contact me at mkeefe@PrimeNet.com.
