Making the Grass Greener

Water bottle company Aquafina found a way to help sustain the environment by creating the Eco-Fina bottle, a water bottle that uses 50% less plastic than regular plastic bottles. With the goal of being less dependent on plastic, Aquafina is just one example of businesses looking to reduce their carbon footprint. On an individual level, there are various ways to make a difference, including shorter showers, using public transportation, and eating at home more often. With a multitude of resources available it’s easy to get on the green scene.

One easy and local solution is local produce. Abundant sunshine during the warm months and fresh water proximity make agriculture Long Island’s largest industry. According to the Long Island Farm Bureau, a membership organization of the New York State Farm Bureau, Long Island is one of the most important agricultural regions in the state of New York. Planting the seeds of understanding may take time to grow, but each one planted is a carbon-free step in the right direction.

As the exclusive disposal facility for Long Island and the New York Metropolitan area, we care about the impact that’s made on the environment. We offer a friendly and local solution to disposal needs for contaminated liquid waste in an effort to make our world cleaner and hope you join our efforts!
