Blog Entry #3 - An Innovative Indoor Greening Practice for 2022

 

        As time moves on and people continue to innovate, a huge industry for products is the ability to 

make them environmental friendly. For this blog, I found a very interesting product that is 100% green 

with an amazing purpose. The company I've chosen is called Avocado, and they have created a green 

mattress that is recyclable once it's no longer useable, along with the ability to reduce emissions. 

Created in 2016, the company Avocado decided to start producing a green mattress that is "made from 

non-toxic, natural, and organic materials." 6 years later, Avocado is a successful company that produces 

not only organic mattresses, but also pillows and bedding. The idea of this has resulted in the company 

to be "Climate Neutral Certified" and their factories are even "powered by renewable energy and are 

approaching zero waste." Although a mattress isn't a product that is constantly purchased by a person 

on a yearly basis, this product allows for none of their material to go to waste once the condition for it 

is unusable. I loved reading about this product and company because a mattress isn't something I would 

initially guessed would have an environmental friendly product. Moving forward, this gives me hope 

that in the future every household product will be environmental friendly resulting in a massive 

decrease of waste per household.

                As a company, an important ability to have for your products are to make them  environmentally friendly. The product and company I chose for this blog is Glad. They’ve created  a biodegradable composite bin linear, eliminating the plastic one’s results in huge decrease in  the use of plastic for such a common and useful product. Along with it being biodegradable,  they’ve added scents to the bin liners to freshen up the smell from the bin while there’s waste in  it, just a bonus attribute! These bin liners “meet the requirements of municipal compost  programs, ASTM D6400 standards and are certified compostable by the industry standards.”  These are such an important product for the environment because they don’t produce any toxins  when they break down into the ground and create healthy soil on top of that. Glad introduced  this product to make households more su...

This week’s blog allows for freedom to choose a product, business or service that is new in 2022. For this week’s blog, I’ve decided to expand and explain the Biodegradable Bamboo Charcoal Dental Floss product, created by Me Mother Earth. This product contains biodegradable bamboo fiber, is plastic-free and is sold in a “glass jar that can be recycled or reused infinitely.” The floss eventually breaks down completely within 60-90 days. Traditional dental floss is plastic that obviously doesn’t break down and causes harmful health problems for ocean life and can even result in deaths. Me Mother Earth is producing a product that is already a worldwide household item but are providing a much safer and environmentally friendly option for people to help the earth become greener. Eliminating all the plastic from the traditional dental floss will only benefit the environment and also raise awareness for ocean life protection.  References:  Photo & Info: https://www.bestproducts.c...

                   For my transportation practice that has made its way into production, it’s the Smart Bike. The Smart Bike was designed in China, and it is an autonomous bike that has been expressed as a “versatile cargo vehicle”. The Smart Bike also has the ability to listen to commands you say to it along with “sensors that help the bike avoid obstacles and maintain balance.” This bike could be a ginormous success within the next few years because of its convenience, ability to avoid obstacles and self-drive itself. Yes, bikes have been around for hundreds of years, but for some people the safety that comes with this bike, its environmentally friendly attributes and cargo space will allow for people to make an easy switch from their cars on a day-to-day basis. Sometimes, people on bikes have their headphones in and can’t hear if there’s an object coming their way resulting in physical damage. The fact that this is a bike made fo...
