I've been very happy with these filters, but I've repeatedly struggled to find this information so I hope this helps someone out there:

If you have a Kohler Aquifer filtration system (K-77688-NA filters) which you may have purchased partly or entirely because of the heavily promoted filter takeback/recycling program and, like me, you Googled and struggled for WAY TOO LONG to find the right link to actually generate a return label, here you go: https://www.kohler.com/en/inspiration/home-water-filtration-advantages (click on "Recycle Now" under the "Recycle Your Old Filters" section) It pops open a partially pre-filled fedex RMA. I wanted to spread the word, seed this for Google/search engines, and frankly just leave a kind of note to self.

Hi, my team and I are working to propose solutions to Coca-Cola to make the FIFA World Cup a zero-waste event. If anyone would like to be a part of making this amazing sustainability feat possible, please consider filling out this survey.

My kid asked me for non copyrighted photos of living rooftops in San Francisco Bay area.

I plan to stop at Amy's organics drive thru in rohnert park to snap some pics.

Can anyone give suggestions for pther living rooftops in San Francisco Bay area?

What do folks think of this approach?

Tesco is scrapping plastic packaging from its own-brand pocket tissues, in a move that the UK’s largest supermarket says will eliminate almost 35 tonnes of new soft plastic waste each year.

Hi everyone,

I’ve been working on something that’s really important to me, and I think it could be valuable to you too. It’s called GreenGauge Analytics. The idea came from my own struggles and desires to make my e-commerce operations more sustainable without just shooting in the dark. I wanted to make decisions based on what consumers really care about when it comes to sustainability, not just what we think they do.

So, I started building a platform to provide actionable insights into consumer sentiment on sustainability and the latest trends that are shaping the e-commerce landscape. But here’s the thing - it’s not just about what I believe is needed. This is about creating something that truly serves our community of eco-conscious brands and consumers.

I’m reaching out because I need your help. Before we go full steam ahead, I want to make sure we’re on the right track. If you have a moment, I’d really appreciate it if you could sign up to stay in the loop and maybe share your thoughts through a short survey. Your feedback would mean the world to me and really help shape this into something that can genuinely support businesses like yours in making a positive impact.

You can sign up here. Thank you so much for your time and for considering being a part of this journey. Let’s make sustainability at the core of e-commerce together.

Looking forward to hearing from you,

GreenGauge Analytics

I just want to set a clear standard here regarding air travel, for anyone who is interested:

To put it simply (bear with me till the end) our current lithium-ion batteries (typically used in electric cars) have the potential for 254 watt hours per kilogram (254 W•h/kg). So for every kilogram of lithium ion battery, you can get 254 watt hours. This is a good way to express energy. Keep that number in your head.

Now, the reason airplanes cannot be electric is because without a constant stream of electricity from a power cable (impossible at 30,000 feet), we must rely on batteries to power the aircraft. The best batteries we have are lithium ion. We hope to one day reach the difficult goal of perhaps 300 W•h/kg but it is still pretty far off.

On the other hand, currently aircraft use kerosene as jet fuel. A mixture with additives to make it burn cleaner and more efficiently, but essentially kerosene with the same energy density. Kerosene, a “dirty” fuel, has the energy potential of 12,000 W•h/kg. The only reason we can fly commercially and internationally is due to this immense energy density found only in fossil fuels, safe enough to use in close proximity to the public, light enough to not weigh down the aircraft. 12,000 vs 254… It is why so much of our infrastructure is dedicated to black gold, because that’s literally what it is, in industrial applications. Not to mention the other uses for natural oils and gasses. We will improve our technology, but I strongly believe people need to understand the real science and separate it from the science fiction. Hence the post. A battery is simply a way to store energy, but nothing can be more energy-dense than millions of years of intense pressure and heat forming organic material into oil, unless we look to nuclear reactions which I doubt would be considered safe en-masse by the public. A nuclear plane? Yah, imagine the crash… Plus the heat that it would generate and the need for constant supervision by highly specialized scientists... you can see the problem.

Google it if you don’t believe me. But these are hard facts I think everyone should appreciate and understand. Not that we shouldn’t keep pushing forward, but just understand some ideas are a bit further out than others. 254 W•h/kg VS 12,000 W•h/kg is a massive, massive difference in potential.
