Blog Salutes Green CPG Manufacturers

1-800-Recycling.com, an interactive nationwide Web site devoted to enhancing and democratizing the consumer recycling experience while making practical suggestions about green living, has published on its blog an article lauding some U.S. CPG companies that are making special efforts to go green.

The article, “Food Manufacturers that are Wasting Less,” pays tribute to such manufacturers as Mars, Frito-Lay, Kettle Foods and Nestlé Purina that have striven to offset their carbon footprints, among other sustainable practices

“Our blog at 1-800-Recycling.com is designed to provide useful and practical information about green lifestyle choices,” noted John S. Shegerian, Chairman and CEO of Fresno, Calif.-based Electronic Recyclers International (ERI), the largest recycler of electronic waste in the world, and parent company of 1-800-Recycling.com. “Every trip [shoppers] take to the grocery store is no exception — and it goes beyond buying locally farmed produce, though that is important, too. After reading this article, I think our readers will have an easier time deciding which brands to select if it’s a choice between two, and one is actively making an environmental difference.”
