STF Talks About the Environment

Sparks to Flame is talking about the environment with Ron Bills; Reid Rutherford and Richard Feldman.

Up first is guest, Ron Bills of Envirofit.Envirofit International, a technology leader using sustainable, scalable business models to solve global health and environmental problems. According to World Health Organization, nearly half the world’s population – nearly 3 billion people – cook their daily meals indoors using traditional fire and stoves, burning biomass fuels like wood and crop waste. The resulting Indoor Air Pollution (IAP) kills 1.6 million people every year, more than 85 percent of which are women and children under five.” If we can find we will – in one go – have a positive impact on all of these areas. Envirofit’s new stove represents a a financially viable, sustainable, and scalable solution. These stoves are clean-burning and incredibly efficient, reducing cooking time by at least half and reducing smoke and toxic emissions by up to 80 percent. They also use up to 60 percent less fuel than traditional stoves; significantly improving the lives of customers in the developing world, while having a net positive impact on the global environment.

Reid Rutherford, shares how Photon Energy Services enables companies and government entities to go solar without buying expensive and complex machinery requiring unfamiliar maintenance. They customers lock in their solar energy prices by signing 15 to 25 year power purchase agreements with Photon. Commercial and Industrial clients save up front cost, maintance fees and utility company coordination. Why wait? Listen and learn how your company can obtain the benefits today.

 

Richard Feldman of G4Packaging; closes out the hour talking about environmentally friendly packaging options. With many municipalities, and county’s banning the use of Styrofoam; the pressure grows to find foam tray alternatives, G4Packaging’s natural fiber trays for the meat, produce and prepared foods are the solution. They makes you wonder why if fresh meats last about a week; why do our packages last decades or longer. We also discuss Time Magazine’s August 21st cover story, “The Real Cost of Cheap Food.”
