    Paper bags – as bad as Plastic bags

    Posted on October 31, 2015 by carrygreenblogs

    A study on the life cycle of three types of disposable bags i.e. compostable plastic, paper, and single-use plastic showed that both paper bags and compostable plastic needed more material per bag in the manufacturing process. This meant higher consumption of raw materials in the manufacture of the bags and greater energy in manufacturing of the bag and greater fuel usage in the transportation of the finished product. The added requirements of transport and manufacturing energy for the compostable and paper bag systems far exceed the raw material use in the standard plastic bag method.paper-plastic-2

    Use long-lasting, durable containers that will last years rather than disposable fruit salad, chip bags, sandwich wraps or pudding cups. Stop using disposable napkins and instead opt for washable, durable cloth napkins that will not wind up in a landfill. Use a high-quality water bottle to bring a drink instead of disposable containers. Thermal-insulated bags will even keep your drink and food as hot or as cold as when you packed it.

So manufacturers or stores, picking up a marketing opportunity, are getting in to a heated competition to make the most durable, fashionable reusable bags.

    Uses of Jute Fiber

    Posted on October 20, 2015 by carrygreenblogs

    usesofjuteJute fibers can be used alone or blended with other types of fibers to make twine and rope. The coarse ends of the plants, also known as Jute butts, are used to make inexpensive cloth. On the other hand, very fine threads of jute can be taken out and made into imitation silk. Jute fibers can also be used to make paper, and with increasing fear about forest destruction for wood pulp that is used to make most paper, the importance of jute for this purpose is expected to increase in future. Jute fibers can also be woven into curtains, chair coverings, carpets, hessian cloth, and backing for linoleum.

    CarryGreen.com is a web-based store having a large selection of totes from cotton and jute to non-woven and canvas bags and with prices lower than the rest of the competition.

    Jute Leaf Sacks

    Posted on October 15, 2015 by carrygreenblogs

    An inevitable autumn chore is to rake leaves into piles. Putting the piles of leaves into bags is easier said than done. Plastic bags are not made for natural breakdown. This process can contribute to organic landfill waste or worse. leafsacksIf left at curbside they are ugly and can cause storm drain clogging which may lead to flooding. Jute, a biodegradable and recyclable material is user and environmentally friendly, and fertilizes the yard. A product for collection and composting of leaves called garden composting leaf sacks. We can use the option of biodegradable leaf collection sacks for a win-win situation. The environment wins in two ways. First composting the leaves means no added organic waste in the landfill and second the decomposing leaves add all those rich natural nutrients right back into the soil by composting.

    If you are planning on attending Halloween costume parties this Halloween, then make it a great experience by choosing a costume that will be comfortable to wear. If you have found a mask that is a full-over-the-head mask that is made of latex, take into consideration the ventilation and whether or not you could modify it to be more comfortable without losing the visual effects. While some of the best looking costume masks are made of latex and full-over-the-head, these masks can get unbearably hot, and if not vented well, they can also be hard to breathe in. There are many full masks that also come as three-quarter or half masks with a burlap material or cloth on the back part of the mask, making it a little ventilated and cooler.
