Waste No More

Wednesday, July 1st, 2009

So what’s the big deal with recycling? Many businesses find a hard time justifying spending the time to even consider taking a closer look at waste and their approach to recycling, but in reality— recycling can make much more of an impact than many businesses realize—both on the environment, and on business.

At Home Business OpportunitiesFirst, and most obvious, recycling is essential when it comes to becoming a greener business. But many businesses don’t realize how their small contribution can actually make an impact. For example, the more recycling we do, the less landfill space gets used. Less landfills means more clean air, less gas contributing to global warming, minimized ‘clean up’ due to leaking toxic waste, fewer emissions from trucks hauling waste to the landfill, and more. Most of all, reducing reliance on landfills means more recycling, leading to more products that require far fewer resources and cause a fraction of the emissions. With all the recycling options available and all the benefits that come along with them—there’s no real reason to keep contributing to the smelly mess we so commonly refer to as a “landfill”

Not only do businesses help the environment when they recycle, but they also contribute to a number of economic factors that are far too easy to overlook. For instance, the recycling industry creates jobs, and as it’s becoming more and more prevalent, it’s also becoming much easier. With more jobs, there will inevitably be more money for everyone to spend. But how does recycling help individual businesses now.

Think for instance about the Styrofoam container someone could have thrown away in just about any business, anywhere. Almost every single part of that container could be recycled. Instead, it’s simply heading to the landfill to waste away for the foreseeable future. If it had been recycled, someone could have used it and the business that recycled it could have saved money instead of simply looking at that simple container as trash. Looked at in a bigger way and businesses can realize huge savings that they never even thought about.

So waste isn’t entirely waste after all, is it?

Defy the Norm

Wednesday, May 27th, 2009

So you go to the store, or the bank, or anywhere else, and it’s just your luck that you get stuck at the very end of a long line. You don’t like it. Nobody does. Nobody likes waiting in line, but it’s not because you don’t like the people, or the store, or the color of the tile. Rather, there’s usually one key reason at the heart of it all. Waiting in a line for too long makes you feel like you’re wasting your time—and nobody enjoys wasting their time.
Either way, it’s easy to know when you’ve wasted your time. You find yourself being forced to catch up, you get stressed, and things don’t go quite as smoothly as you would want them to. However, you realize that and you act. In acting, you go to the store or the bank at a different time to prevent yourself from wasting time. So if we are so opposed to wasting our time, why do businesses so easily waste waste?

At Home Business Opportunities
Businesses inefficiently deal with their waste because of the way we so often think about waste. As business owners, we don’t feel ourselves throwing away our money because we’re so used to doing it. If it was normal to stand in line for an hour, it wouldn’t be a problem and we wouldn’t feel like we had completely wasted our time.
What it takes is a change of habit, a realization that the trashcan is not the last step for a plastic bottle, a stack of old newspaper, or a pile of scrap metal. They can all be recycled in processes that will create value from trash. That’s why EWS is here. EWS affiliates make a positive impact by helping businesses realize that they can defy the norm and save.

Who knew?

Thursday, May 7th, 2009

Can you point out all the plastic products that you use every day? Our lives are surrounded by plastic to the degree that we often don’t even realize it. The phone we use every day, the food containers we throw away at lunch, the pens we use, the cars we drive in, the computers we work on, and so much more—it’s all plastic! Our world is full of plastic, and we seem to always be tossing it in the garbage can. It has become second-nature, but the truth is that we can do much more with plastic than just throw it away when it’s served its purpose.

Nowadays, with more and more motivation to create recycled products the opportunities are expanding for businesses to stretch their dollar as far as it can possibly go. Instead of simply casting plastic aside as waste, businesses can instead make what we might as well consider a bit of free money. Simply consider the number of uses for recycled plastic. It can be used for plastic film, water bottles, soda bottles, plastic containers, mud flaps, automobile trim parts, garden tools, plastic bags, and much more.

At Home Business Opportunities

If you can save a bit of money, why not do all you can? The even better part is that it costs literally nothing out of pocket. Imagine if every time the trash collector came to haul away your household waste he also came to your front door and handed you money. Wouldn’t that be nice? Well, while that’s unlikely, it’s more or less what EWS affiliates offer their clients, and it couldn’t be simpler.

Greening on a large scale

Thursday, March 26th, 2009

With our new President sworn in and behind the wheel, people across the country are constantly presented with news about the many campaign promises that the President Obama is attempting to make good on. Recently announced measures to help propel the United States to a greener future would invest more than 68 billion dollars in helpingnb America go green.

At Home Business Opportunities

However, increasing funds to make the country greener does much more than help the environment. It would also help to reduce the energy bills and fuel prices for Americans everywhere. Also, as more money and attention is invested in the greening industry, more jobs are created. But what does this mean for EWS affiliates and clients?

For affiliates, an increasing interest in greening ensures that waste management consulting remains not only a profitable field, but a stable and recession proof field as well. EWS affiliates can rest easy knowing that much more is invested in recycling than just their own time and interest, on a much larger scale recycling is a national (and global) concern.

When it comes to clients, more interest in recycling means more outlets for better waste management. As more time and effort are put into recycling on a national scale, EWS affiliates will be able to squeeze increasing amounts of savings out of waste that businesses ten years ago would have sent to the landfill.

For every party involved it’s becoming clearer every day that recycling is the way to go, but EWS can take it one step further and make sure that recycling pays as well.

Predictability is a good thing for business

Monday, March 23rd, 2009

For most businesses, it’s all about supply and demand. However when it came to fuel prices a few months ago, businesses virtually everywhere felt the sting of supply and demand on a larger scale. Now, across the country the factors influencing the price of oil have led to a drop in price that many have waited months to see. At last, businesses have crawled out from under oppressive gas prices to a place where there is just a little more predictability.

At Home Business Opportunities

According to OPEC, last July a barrel of oil was trading for about $100 each— which threw just about everyone into a financial slump. However, this December relieved the whole country when the price fell to a low of $32, an amount we haven’t seen since 2003. While prices may not be as low now as they were then, they’re still stabilized and they’re still staying low—which is one bit of news that businesses all over are rejoicing about. If this new level of stability shows us anything, it is that predictability is a good thing for businesses.

Predictability is one thing that EWS affiliates can consistently deliver to their clients. While many may think that the impact of waste is insignificant, the money spent on inefficient waste management can be more serious than most businesses realize. Ensuring the price for waste management remains as low as possible allows businesses to do more than just save money. In addition, it offers them at least one thing that they know will remain constant. With trash and waste always remaining a constant in business, why not take advantage of it? Through waste, EWS can offer businesses the constant reassurance of savings , efficiency, and just a little precious predictability.

EWS: A Helping Hand

Wednesday, March 4th, 2009

Owning a business is never easy. It takes time, toil, and dedication to hit some sort of stride, achieve balance, and keep things running smoothly. No matter what, owning a business presents the owner or manager with countless concerns. First there are the human aspects to consider that present a whole slew of things to worry about. Are customers satisfied? Are suppliers coming through? Are employees doing their job? Then there are other concerns like the perpetually troublesome worries about machinery, computers, and equipment.

At Home Business Opportunities

You can think of business owners kind of like you would picture a chef. They’re watching too many pots of boiling water, adjusting them to keep everything going while avoiding the mess that would come if they were to ever boil over. But when the business owner finally gets a chance to step back and take the slightest break it always seems like a new problem or concern springs up again. It reminds us that there’s always something to take care of, there’s some pressing concern lurking behind every corner.

That’s where EWS comes in. EWS affiliates across the country can help businesses in a number of ways. They can help them go green and they can help them save money, but there’s one thing that many businesses appreciate even more. That’s the way EWS affiliates can completely remove one potentially problematic aspect of business that never seems to go away, business waste.

Instead of throwing money away with their waste, EWS affiliates give money back to their clients and help make running a business just a little easier.

Waste: Tried and True.

Sunday, March 1st, 2009

Over the years, EWS affiliates have had the opportunity to work with a number of different clients. Not only does that list of clients continue to grow, but the number of different industries we work with grows as well. No matter how much money we help our clients save and no matter what industry they belong to, one thing remains the same—there is money in waste (for both ends of the bargain!).

At Home Business Opportunities

Take Coca-Cola for example. The company is hardly an obscure business, and you don’t need us to tell you about their exposure across the globe. It isn’t surprising that a business of their size would produce a great deal of waste. However, despite their size EWS affiliates were still capable of finding a way for them to save.

Fast forward just a few years and Coca-Cola continues to see the value in waste. On January 14th Coca-Cola will unveil their state of the art “bottle-to-bottle” recycling facility in South Carolina. According to the company, in roughly ten years the center will be capable of eliminating the production of approximately 1 million metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions—which Is equivalent to removing over 215,000 cars from the road. While the company shows a clear dedication to making a difference by spreading recycling, their goal to recycle 100 percent of the Company’s PET (polyethylene terephthalate) plastic bottles in the U.S will obviously deliver much more than a message about recycling. On a business end, through their investment in recycling Coca-Cola stands to save immense amounts of money in the long run. Not only does recycling plastic save twice as much energy as burning it but it also drastically cuts down on the amount of new materials needed for production. The combination of both of these factors make the cost-efficiency of recycled plastic a no-brainer, especially when considering that recycled plastic bottles and newly produced plastic bottles are virtually indistinguishable.

Companies that take a significant interest in waste serve as the perfect example that waste is more than just waste. It can be a hurdle, it can be a pain, and it can be a hazard, but it can also be a great opportunity to make a difference and to save. When businesses can’t invest in a 60 million dollar recycling facility, or when they simply want to take the extra step to be more efficient, EWS can help them make the most out of everything they can and make a difference at the same time.

How about a vacation?

Tuesday, February 3rd, 2009

After a year of hard work just about everyone isn’t surprised to think to themselves, “I need a vacation.” They go to work day in and day out, they do their job, and they make it through. It’s like a non-stop race with too-short pit stops situated all along the way. Vacations are great, but no matter where you go there’s one thing that you can hardly ever escape, no matter how far away you are. There’s always that lingering reminder that you have to go home when more often than not you’d like nothing more than to stay.

At Home Business Opportunities

Environmental Waste Solutions gives affiliates the chance to move at their own pace. Finally, they have the opportunity to slow that race down and catch their breath when they need to. Now, EWS affiliates across the country live life in full control. They finally have the chance to actually look at the scenery instead of seeing it as one long blur, broken only by the occasional fleeting vacation. EWS offers potential affiliates that very opportunity, the chance to break away from routine and be their own boss.

EWS is always looking for new affiliates who are eager to take control and set their own pace. For the EWS affiliate the grind is gone and so are the days spent looking forward to the next vacation. Are you spontaneous? Do you like to travel? Or are you simply looking for a new challenge? Then EWS is for you.

Step out of the race, move to the beat of your own drum, and live life for yourself. With Environmental Waste Solutions, it’s more than possible.

Piles and piles of waste

Monday, January 26th, 2009

Often you’ll be driving down the road, through a neighborhood, or into your own driveway and you’ll see waste. Maybe you see a broken down car, a pile of scrap destined for the dump, or a pile of building materials. They’re all different kinds of materials, but they all have one thing in common—they’re being wasted, and the one thing EWS affiliates know best is that it’s always a mistake to let waste go to waste.

At Home Business Opportunities

What bothers us so much about all of these things, like old rusty cars and piles of waste, is more than the simple fact that they look bad. One explanation could be that wasted waste bothers us so much because it’s a reminder that the things we so often see as trash were once useful and may still be—it’s a shame to see them cast aside and thrown out, because they can be so much more. EWS affiliates simply point out that what we so easily call trash can continue to be useful and profitable. Affiliates serve as a reminder that waste is something we create but it’s also something we can prevent.

We’re not saying that businesses will stop creating waste, but there’s a big difference between creating waste and preventing it. Preventing waste is preventing loss. Businesses lose when the waste they do create doesn’t go as far as it can. By preventing waste, EWS affiliates allow businesses to take charge and ensure that everything is as useful, profitable, and cost-efficient as possible.

Make a Difference

Tuesday, December 9th, 2008

Companies across the world are quickly adopting “greener” ways to go about their business. For example, some companies have switched to driving eco-friendly trucks in order to reduce their carbon footprint. At EWS we think that’s great. But on the other hand, there are much easier ways to go green while saving money instead of spending it.

At Home Business Opportunities

Generally, when we think of going green we think of expensive investments that ultimately lead to long term savings and higher efficiency. Think of green vehicles for instance; it would sure be nice if everyone had one—but there’s just one problem. They’re expensive. The initial cost of going green is so much higher than the non-green alternatives that it’s often hard to know what you can do to make less of an impact on the environment. For some, it may seem that the cost of “going green” is too high, but that’s where many businesses are wrong.

One of the best ways to go green and save money without having to spend it is to simply get smarter about waste. EWS can help businesses look at what they consume, what their waste consists of, and how they can recycle it more efficiently.

Not only does getting smart about recycling help businesses make less of an impact on the environment, but it saves a significant amount of money as well. Think about how much it costs to simply haul waste away to a landfill. The Natural Resources and Defense Council released a report detailing the benefits of recycling and proving that recycling programs not only reduce pollution but they also decrease the amount of garbage and the need for costly landfill space. Estimates from the Environmental Protection Agency also say that recycling can cost from $50 to $150 per ton while trash collection and disposal can cost between $70 and $200 per ton.

This proves that not only is recycling beneficial to the environment, but recycling costs less than the cost of garbage pick-up and disposal ultimately saving money, saving resources, and making businesses run a whole lot smoother.
