First and foremost, HAPPY NEW YEAR! May 2008 bring you
health, wealth, and proseprity. Thank you for your continued
support, which made 2007 a great year for Moral Fabric!
Without you, we wouldn't exist. We would like to share
with you some of the changes that will take place in
2008. Please read below.
In
staying true with our plans to use only organic cotton
in 2008, we have also made quite a few adjustments in
the way we run our daily business. In order to create
less waste and to conserve energy, we have made HUGE
changes in the administrative side of Moral Fabric.
Here are some examples (the transformation will be complete
mid January-early February):
-MoralFabric.com
will be hosted on a sever run by 100% renewable energy.
These energy sources include wind power and solar energy.
-All
printed goods originating from the Moral Fabric headquarters
will be printed on 100% recycled paper.
-80%
of the shipping materials used will be recycled, recyclable,
and/or bio-degradable.
-The
production and disposal of junk mail consumes more energy
than 3 million cars, according to Center for a New American
Dream. We're doing our part! In order to cut down on
this waste, we have registered with the Direct Marketing
Association to have our mailing address removed from
all future marketing...we receive TONS of unwanted mail.
If you wish to register, please visit www.dmaconsumers.org/cgi/offmailinglist.
-According
to the Power Scorecard,replacing one incandescent light
bulb with an energy efficient compact fluorescent (CFL)
can save up to 260 pounds of carbon dioxide per year!
We have switched all office light bulbs to CFL bulbs.
This equals roughly 3120 pounds of carbon dioxide per
year we are saving !!
-Our
Texas residents will be happy to know we have secured
a t-shirt manufacturer that uses 100% certified organic
cotton home grown in the good ole' State of Texas!
-In
order to reduce waste, the Moral Fabric catalog will
be available to retailers ONLINE ONLY.
