I thought I would share some interesting comments from Richard Branson today. In case you don't know, Sir Richard is quite the activist/business person.
In researching information on comments he made surrounding alternative energy production (solar & wind), I found something just as important. Yesterday, Virgin Airways announced they are halving their carbon footprint with the use of bio fuels. In English this means one of their business partners has figured out how to recycle waste gas from industrial steel production and convert it to jet fuel. Fantastic.
The airline industry has long been known to be "dirty" and not carbon friendly. If all goes well, "clean flights" should be underway in 2014 and this will revolutionize the industry.
What are you doing to reduce your carbon footprint?
Retrofitting your lighting to LED and or LEP (plasma) based lighting will reduce your electricity bill by up to 75% and drastically reduce your carbon footprint. Since it can be done without any upfront costs, what are you waiting for? Contact me for details. jkornfeld@energysavingindustry.com
I have watched many jump in before me and begin blogging to either share their thoughts or to figure out a way to make money. I am sure many many posts have been devoted to this subject so we'll just move on and leave it with I took the plunge and the water is warm. :)
So, what is this going to be about? Many things. Hopefully, thoughts/ideas that move you, make you feel or, better yet, make you do something.
I recently became a "tree hugger". No, not literally. Not even close. But I do recycle as much as possible, never litter and want to help make the world a better place one client at a time. Do you know the expression "reducing our carbon footprint"? If not, you should.
Reduce electricity demand by 60% or more and we can eliminate 250 million tons of CO2 emission. This translates to eliminating the need tobuild 150 additional power-plants. Savings exceed $115 billion!!
One of the simplest ways to substantially reduce our CO2 output by up to 90% is with the use of LED & LEP (plasma based) lighting. My comments are directed to the commercial marketplace but some of these ideas can be adopted in the home as well. I recently read that 80% of all the light bulbs sold are for commercial use. That being said, businesses and property owners are all looking for low/no cost "green" initiatives that produce a big bang for their money.

What if there was a way to "go green", save up to 75% on your electricity bills and do this without any upfront cost? Would you want to know more?
My company, Energy Saving Solutions, helps our clients by replacing their old inefficient lighting with LED and or LEP (plasma) based lights. Clients get to go green, save A LOT of money and experience an immediate ROI!
LEP Light Bulb = 1,000 times smaller then currently used technology, lasts 50,000 hours AND uses 50% less electricity while producing a better white light!!
LEP lightbulbs will replace this
And this too
Natural candidates for our retrofit are; office buildings, hospitals,shopping centers, malls, parking lots, apartment buildings,high rise condominiums, co-ops,supermarkets, hotels, airports, museums, department stores, fitness centers, retail chain stores, schools (local school districts up to universities) distribution centers and parking garages to name a few. Any business who is open 24/7 or uses a lot of electricity is a good fit.
