Just in Time For Earth Day: How to Reduce E-Waste

04/20/2017 by DeniseB

This Sunday marks Earth Day, a global annual event celebrated each April 22nd in a variety of ways to support environmental issues. First celebrated in 1970, over 193 countries and 1 billion people now participate in Earth Day happenings. That makes Earth Day the largest civic observance on the planet.

This year, Earth Day Network and the March for Science are co-organizing a rally and teach-in on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. Science and technology companies provide consumers with the most up-to-date electronic devices. Sometimes it seems these electronics become obsolete before they are paid off, as we demand the latest technological advances at the tip of our fingers.

While that is good for the economy, it’s not so good for the environment. Fifty million tons of e-waste is generated worldwide each year, 71% of which go into our landfills or incinerators. The toxic chemicals can then leach into our waters or pollute our air.

When we replace our cellphones, televisions or computers with newer versions, what is the best and most ecological way to dispose of them?

If we don’t start to do a better job of reducing or recycling (only 12.5% of it is being recycled at this time) our old electronic devices, this world we live in might become too toxic to support life.

Make this Earth Day the one where you take a pledge to protect our planet and support these issues that affect our health and our communities, such as greening deteriorated schools, creating green jobs and investment, and promoting activism to stop air and water pollution.

It’s that time of year again … time to celebrate the ‘Best of Delaware’ winners!

The ‘Best of Delaware’ party has become an annual tradition that showcases the top professionals, shops, services and restaurants that have won the esteemed title. Many winners take this opportunity to show off just why they were named winners by making delicious food, drinks and handing out promotional products.

The ‘Best of Delaware’ Party continues to be one of the most popular events of the state and it raises funds for two worthy causes; Big Brothers Big Sisters of Delaware and Delaware Guidance Services for Children and Youth.

Borsello Landscaping won ‘Best Upstate Landscaper’ last year and the company’s marketing manager, Amy Sassaman shared, “It was fun to check out the other booths and see who else won ‘Best Of’ titles. It was also exciting getting to taste different foods and drinks and collect giveaways from other vendors. It seemed like everyone had great exposure and opportunity to show off the various aspects of their business that won them their titles.” — Delaware Today

So Delawareans, check out this year’s ‘Best of’ party. It’s a terrific way to see what’s happening with Delaware’s culinary scene, meet the winners and possibly find your new ‘favorites’. It is also a great way to support local small businesses who are working hard to get it right.

In 2014 the company won its first Best of Delaware title in the category of Upstate Hot Stuff. Corrin Andrzejewski, director of sales and marketing for Freakin’ Fresh Salsa, says the Best of Delaware honor has definitely boosted business. “The governor came to our facility,” she says. “We have gotten more recognition and having the ability to display ‘Best of Delaware’ on our containers has been awesome.” – Delaware Today
