Maple Grove, MN -- (ReleaseWire) -- 01/21/2015 -- The website gives readers a platform to gain abundant information on various land forms and features such as cliffs, bays, canyons, deserts, continents and coasts, etc. Volcanoes are openings on the surface of the earth that occur due to the eruption of magma, ashes and minerals. It also occurs when tectonic plates diverge and converge. The various kinds of volcanoes that can be found on the earth are shield volcanoes, spatter cones, composite volcanoes, complex volcanoes and cinder cones.

Volcanoes are an interesting feature on this planet. The whole process of formation and eruption of this natural feature has many facts. Out the many, a composite volcano, which is also known as strato-volcano, is one of the volcanoes which can found along the Pacific Rim. The region is also known as the "rim of fire" because of continuous eruptions. The name strato-volcano is due to formation in a layered structure. This kind of volcano takes place over multiple eruptions over a long time, sometimes a thousand years. It is tall and is shaped in a conical form which lets the lava escape from the rupture and flow downward.

Talking more about volcanoes, one of the representatives of World Land Forms stated, "A lot of volcanoes are in the form of a mountain or a hill that have a crater from past eruptions. Many times, before an eruption, there is activity in the Earth's surface that makes the ground shake or even the crater in the volcano grow. Scientists are getting better at predicting eruptions. This can save many lives."

Joliet, IL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 01/21/2015 -- Regular dirt ground in a horse arena can cause much dust and can be hard on a horse injury. This winter, stable owners and customers of the equestrian market can opt for rubber mulch from Recycled Rubber Products, LLC. The company specializes in providing quality rubber mulch that performs a variety of functions. Equestra-Turf is a great solution to create a safer, healthier atmosphere for horses and riders.

The Equestra-Turf is made from recycled vehicle tires that are grinded up into tiny pieces. To perform successfully, the mulch must be mixed with layers of limestone or clay to reduce compacting. The flooring is an excellent investment because it saves money by lasting for years without needing to be replaced. Horses that are injured will have a softer padding to their step with Equestra-Turf.

The rubber mulch is available in a black color and is non-toxic to animals. Time can be saved when it comes to arena maintenance because the turf soil drains well if it gets wet and halts weed growth. Stable owners do not have to worry about termites because the mulch does not attract them like wood chips do. The rubber chips in the mulch have the ability to hold ground moisture, which prevents dust.

Installation is fast and easy. Customers have the opportunity to have 0% financing for up 6 months on their rubber mulch purchase. To request a quote, customers are invited to call the company at 888-304-2718 or fill out their online form.

Carol Ann Sherman Launches Indiegogo Project for the Proper Bag Company

Crowdfunding is needed to help this small business fill two purchase orders so it can get off the ground.

San Francisco, CA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 01/26/2015 -- California has the most stringent plastic and paper bag laws in the United States. The easier answer is reusable shopping bags that so many people Californians bring with them to the supermarket every week. Ms. Sherman was not happy with existing bag choices. That's because they're flimsy and frustrating to manage. This led her to design a reusable shopping bag that solves every problem that exists with ecofriendly shopping bags today.

Her reusable grocery bags are made with military grade canvas, are pre-washed to maintain shape with the added features of pockets and elastic bands provides proper storage for fragile items like fresh bread, fresh flowers and wine leaving more room inside for other purchases. The easy grab 4ply handles cushion palms while carrying a bag full of almost anything. It's easy to imagine a dozens of different uses for these versatile bags in day to day life. Her innovation led her to secure provisional patents on her bag designs with the option apply for full-blown patents.

Carol Ann did her homework and all the heavy lifting; she's procured an American manufacturer to bolster American jobs with "Made in the USA" pride, selected the perfect material and went through several iterations of designs to end up with the perfect grocery bag that can do so much more.

Ms. Sherman is old school and is not afraid of hard work. She knows it takes beating the pavement and knocking on doors to build a business. She has no problem making cold calls - the bane of salespeople the world over – to make more sales.

The facts are on her side; she has two purchase orders in house and funds from this project would pay for the inventory necessary to fulfill these orders.

Her goal is to be the reusable bag distributor in the United States for groceries, retails stores and more. Her ecofriendly bags are multipurpose and can be recycled when the bags eventually wear out. Ms. Sherman is positive that once a consumer holds one of these bags and sees it for themselves; they'll fall in love with it.

That's because the initial response to her recyclable bags has been super positive. She's sold an impressive number of bags in a short period of time. One of her standing orders is to be delivered by February 15th to a high-end retailer with eight locations.

All funds raised through this crowdfunding campaign will be used to buy materials and produce the bags for her two standing orders with every expectation that additional orders are very close behind. A successful crowdfunding project will allow Carol Ann to have the inventory on had she needs so she can freely pursue her dreams with the confidence of knowing she can deliver on every new sale she makes.

This crowdfunding campaign ends on February 3, 2015.

About Carol Ann Sherman
Despite Ms. Sherman's award-winning skills as a national advertising sales rep, she was let go late last year with the nebulous explanation of "changing conditions". Not one to sit on her hands, her strong work ethic coupled with her creativity led her to solve a problem that's frustrated her for far too long; reusable shopping bags. The ecofriendly bags she's used are too flimsy with floppy handles and aren't washable led her to design an ecofriendly shopping bag that changes everything. She has two grown children and two grand children who she loves dearly. She wishes to inspire them through her own actions.

Rainforest Communities Need Your Help to Stop Ecocide in the Amazon of Ecuador

The Indiegogo Crowdfunding project is sought to support them for remediation of the Amazon.

Quito, Ecuador -- (ReleaseWire) -- 01/27/2015 -- After an international trial against oil giant Chevron-Texaco that ran for 21 years finally came to a triumphant end in the result of a $9.5 judgment against this corporate juggernaut, justice has yet to be served. A victory on paper only, the 30,000 or so people and over 1700 square miles of rainforest hit hard by Chevron's activities have nothing to show for it.

That's because not a single penny of the court-ordered $9.5 billion award has been disbursed. 450,000 hectares of previously pristine rainforest and tens of thousands of people who have astonishingly high rates of cancer, leukemia and other diseases remain victims of corporate malfeasance with no relief in sight.

Justice delayed is justice denied which has led the affected communities undertake legal actions in different countries.

The Union of Those Affected by Texaco (UDAPT) which initiated legal action against Chevron and ultimately won the legal battle succeeded to obtain the its condemnation needs urgent help from responsible citizens of the world to go on with the information and communication campaigns on the case. At the same time the communities have to organize themselves in order to prepare the remediation of the damages. Chevron has to pay in order to enable the communities to prepare plans for the reparation of the damages to the rainforests they impacted or conceive health care plans to the 30,000 or so people that are plagued by endless barrage of health problems proven in court to be the fault of Chevron. The challenge is also to overcome the economic siege imposed by Chevron on social activists whose efforts to support the struggle for justice have been hobbled by this multinational corporate Goliath.

Crowdfunding in the amount of 30 000$ will be used to organize a powerful communication campaign in order to raise awareness of this impediment of justice as well as an outreach program to empower the indigenous people so they can prepare their plans for the remediation of the damaged rainforests.

Today every legal action initiated by Chevron to avoid the payment of the sentence delays the remediation of the contaminated land and rivers and causes victims every day.

Solar Panels on Carports and Parking Lots: Another Bright and Efficient Idea in Conserving Solar Energy

$

The fact that solar panels have been the best alternative source of energy yet its cost can hinder its total usage, investing in this could be considered the best decision. It might be expensive upon initial purchase but will definitely help people save more in years to come.

Norwich, England -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/05/2015 -- Solar panels slowly gain its spotlight as consumers see the much potential of this photovoltaic module as an alternative source of power by harnessing the sun's energy to produce electricity. That a new generation of solar panels that consist with perovskite minerals is bound to take over the market as a low-cost, solar-based and a clean energy solution for the coming years. Especially that the authorities are considering its value of installing solar panels on the pavements.

With the immense popularity of solar panels in saving people from pricey energy dilemmas, free solar panels under the feed-in tariff scheme are highly endorsed by most companies to accelerate the investment in renewable energy technologies. This scheme allows homeowners to have free electricity by renting their roofs to companies who will provide the solar panels. And to further maximize the worth of having solar panels, another bright idea has been raised by the public and that is installing solar panels on pavements – particularly in parking lots.

According to a latest research conducted by the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, most cities in America have pavement surfaces that range from 35% to 50%, while 40% of those are parking lots that are made up of asphalt and concrete which is known to absorb the sun's energy and retain heat. And because of this 'urban heat island effect', these cities have hotter surrounding areas.

With this data in hand, building a carport with solar panels as a shade can help cut down the heat, cool down parked cars and power up electric vehicles like Teslas. It was noted that it can generate a lot of power depending on the sizes of solar panels installed. Furthermore, parking a car in the shade during hot seasons could increase fuel efficiency of vehicles.

Yet the downside of having solar carports is the varying cost of solar panels in the market. Solar projects that include solar carports could be the most expensive type of system to pursue. It requires a lot of engineering works, steel, and labor. Yet, the riskiness of investing in solar panels never impeded the growth of solar panels in the market as a niche, now that many large corporations are starting to embrace this system not only for aesthetic purposes, but also to conserve energy.

The fact that solar panels have been the best alternative source of energy yet its cost can hinder its total usage, investing in this could be considered the best decision. It might be expensive upon initial purchase but will definitely help people save more in years to come.

Generally, the sun has given vitality to basically all living animals on earth, through the methodology of photosynthesis, in which plants ingest sun powered radiation and convert it into energy for development and advancement. Researchers and architects today look to use sun based radiation specifically by changing over it into valuable high temperature or power.

Two principle sorts of sun based renewable energy frameworks being used today are: photovoltaics, and thermal frameworks. There are large opportunities to utilize these technologies in Australia due to the vast amount of space and the abundance of sun light. Continuous development into these technologies is essential as they will eventually provide the backbone for power supply for every country in the world.

Solar energy is certainly taking off in Australia and now engineers have developed incredible ways of utilizing free space in parking lots as well as providing additional shade cover for the vehicles.

As most parking lots are surrounded by businesses or structures such as stadiums and shopping centers that typically have very high power consumption the solar energy doesn't have to travel far before it is fully absorbed.

The one major issue, the Post says, is that such structures are costly at this time when comparing to conventional mounting structures but as the scheme starts gaining some momentum prices are surely to fall.

"It's the most expensive type of system to build," TruSolar's Chase Weir, who rates monetary danger for sun powered tasks as a profession, tells the Post.

"A great deal of engineering, a ton more steel, more work, and in this manner, it's a moderately little rate [of sun oriented power]…  however it is developing, and the expense to introduce a sun powered overhang today is short of what the expense to introduce a roof simply a couple of years prior". That's why Gem Energy Australia is really looking positively to install these commercial solar panels to get the maximum output from the enormous source of power.

Gem Energy Australia expects to install over 4 Megawatts of these structures over the next 3 years which is enough power to run over 200 homes.

Take a look at the two types of solar panels mentioned above in this report:

Solar Photovoltaic

Photovoltaic frameworks convert sun oriented radiation to power by means of an assortment of routines. The most well-known methodology is to utilize silicon boards, which create an electrical current when light sparkles upon it.Sun based photovoltaic are particularly profitable for remote provincial applications where it would be restrictively expensive to supply power from a utility line.

Solar thermal systems

The principle points of interest of solar thermal systems are that it is clean, ready to work freely or in conjunction with conventional fuel sources, and is amazingly renewable. The primary issue with solar thermal systemsis that it is currently more expensive than dirty fossil fuels and the potential energy production is dependent on the seasons of the year.

Peeler Environmental Launches Crawl Space Assessment and Repair Services

Salisbury Based Pest Control Company Expands to Provide Crawl Space Services and Mold Remediation

Salisbury, NC -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/09/2015 -- According to the EPA's web page on mold resources, a full one-third to one-half of buildings in America are plagued with excessive dampness. This encourages the growth of bacteria and molds responsible for many cases of asthma as well as a number of allergic reactions. It also fosters the spread of contagions. The vast majority of this moisture and mold is the result of vented, dirt crawlspaces - crawlspaces that are the underlying cause of so many problems that experts in the housing industry call them a "housing epidemic." One problem commonly associated with under the house moisture is that of unwanted insects, which thrive in a damp environment, and use it to springboard into vast populations. For this reason, local pest control company Peeler Environmental recently launched a new service providing crawl space solutions such as assessments, repair, and mold remediation for area homes.

According to Bill Peeler, CEO, "Too much moisture in the crawl space beneath a home is a big problem for a lot of folks. Moisture under a house creates an ideal breeding ground for bacteria, mold and rot." It is common for the crawl spaces of homes without rain gutters, or that are built on low land, to have excessive moisture beneath them. "Moisture attracts unwanted pests and can cause damage to underlying sub-structures," he added. "By taking care of moisture problems when they are first observed, a homeowner can literally save himself thousands of dollars and often, serious health problems." A 2007 Mudarri and Fisk study reported that household damp and mold contributes to up to 21% of existing asthma cases in the US, sporting an annual price tag of $3.5 billion.

A wet crawl space also predisposes wooden sub-structures to rot, damage that often goes undetected until it's quite serious. People tend to ignore their crawl spaces until there's a reason not to. "Just about the worst thing that could possibly occur is the loss of structural integrity," noted Peeler. Peeler Environmental's solution to crawl space moisture is often to utilize a poly-vapor barrier that isolates the moisture in the soil from the structures of the home. Other helpful tools when dealing with a water-logged crawl space are sump pumps, foundation drains, encapsulating with a poly-moisture barriers, and dehumidifiers. Every Peeler Environmental job starts with an objective and thorough examination. All Peeler staff members have both completed a strenuous training program, and additionally have successfully passed an official background check.

About Peeler Environmental
Peeler Environmental has been helping residents in the greater Salisbury area eliminate problems with unwanted pests for over 45 years. The family-owned company was begun in 1968 by Bill Peeler as Bill's Exterminating Company. Peeler Environmental originally provided control of termites and insect pests such as roaches, ants, silverfish, spiders, rodents, etc. Today the company has expanded their services to include lawn insect management, mosquito control, blown-in TAP attic insulation and now, crawl space assessments, restoration and encapsulation, crawlspace mold remediation and crawlspace insulation installation. Peeler Environmental enjoys an outstanding reputation within the communities they service for honesty, integrity, exceptional service and quality workmanship.

ByeBye Mold Advises Annual Mold Testing in California

Along with their annual fire alarm battery check-up, it is time for California homeowners and commercial building owners and managers to schedule their annual mold inspection.

Woodland Hills, CA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/09/2015 -- Mold exposure to high levels of indoor toxic mold or black mold can lead to a multitude of illnesses and symptoms, especially in children, the elderly or those with compromised immune systems. All California property owners should be diligent about scheduling their annual mold inspection, to get detection, and testing done in a timely fashion. Water leaks and toxic mold growth should be caught early on before the health of residents and employees and the structural integrity of your property is compromised. Toxic black mold is a common term that refers specifically to Stachybotrys chartarum, but individuals can be allergic to any species of mold, whether or not it is toxic, or produces mycotoxins. Toxic black mold is frequently a source of problems because it consumes cellulose, which is richly provided in building materials.

Think you're immune from mold because it's dry outside? Plumbing leaks too, and frequently in places you can't see, like inside walls, attics, or crawl spaces. And then when it does start raining again, trust water to find somewhere to go that is going to feed spores just waiting for it. And even if there's no leak, difference between indoor and outdoor temperature can cause condensation, which has nowhere to go in an air-tight home.

Port Saint Lucie, FL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/12/2015 -- DMR Trading Corp. has successfully obtained licensing and final approval from both the USDA and Florida Department of Agriculture for its flagship product, Plant Cell Fusion (PCF). PCF is a liquid type, naturally derived high yield plant nutrient containing 19 essential amino acids. The company has achieved exceptional results in crop trials conducted on citrus, grapes, cabbage, and turf.

A spokes person for DMR Trading Corp. stated, "Plant Cell Fusion is a long awaited development that has taken over 5 years to perfect. It is an extraordinary product that will revolutionize the way crops are grown in the United States and abroad. This plant nutrient is so powerful that we recommend it to be diluted with 1,000 times water for foliar application. Plant Cell Fusion is in a class of its own; there is nothing like it on the market today. It has a multitude of benefits and can be adapted for use in any growing application. Some of its benefits include: Significantly boosts yield (10-30%), improves resistance to temperature extremes and moisture variance, improves taste via higher Brix level, boosts plants' natural defenses to disease and pathogens, accelerates root, leaf, and stem growth, and improves soil conditions by stimulating microbial activity, thereby reducing or eliminating crop rotations and fallow ground. As a Florida based company, we are fully aware of the "Greening" epidemic in the Citrus Industry and have conducted extensive crop trials to verify Plant Cell Fusion's effectiveness in combating the HLB disease. Documented test results definitively prove that our product not only protects orange trees from acquiring the disease, but also helps restore infected trees to their original health and fruit bearing conditions. Currently, no other product on the market has been shown to be as effective in treating advanced stage HLB in citrus. USDA and Florida Department of Agriculture licensing and approval of Plant Cell Fusion was the last piece of the puzzle for us to fully launch our product. It will be commercially available in 2.5 gallon containers starting in March of this year. Please visit our website at http://www.plantcellfusion.com for more information."

Retrofit Kit (RFK) is a truly wireless charger that will relieve users from buying single use batteries. Creator Karl Berger is looking to raise $90,000 AUD via Kickstarter to start manufacturing Retrofit Kit (RFK).

Cairns, Australia -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/12/2015 -- Karl Berger has created an advanced, wireless charger that will allow users keep their favorite Maglite® charged all the time. A revolutionary charger, Retrofit Kit (RFK) will save money and help environment protection by helping users renew their investment on Maglite® flashlight.

Use of traditional flashlights involves a high maintenance cost because of batteries that are weak, unreliable, and dull. Retrofit Kit (RFK) will bring a solution to this problem with its Intelligent Battery Module that will combine effortlessly and efficiently with Maglite® D-cell flashlights. With six added functions, users will be able to change the light output. During an emergency, they can also extend the charge in their battery. Simply by clicking the on/off button, users can flick through the different light levels available with the Intelligent Battery Module. They range from 100%, 50%, 25%, 12.5 %, slow flash, and a high-speed self-defense strobe.

The Retrofit Kit (RFK) comes equipped with an LCD display that will keep users informed as to the charge level of the battery, its temperature and how many times it has been charged. In the case of a power outage, the Charger Base Station of Retrofit Kit (RFK) switches on its built-in Emergency Light Array. As a result, Retrofit Kit users are never left in the dark.

The Retrofit Kit (RFK) will also feature a newly designed tail cap that will make it possible to wirelessly charge Maglite® just by sliding it into the Charger Base Station (CBS). This tail cap is impact resistant and fits precisely into Maglite®. Retrofit Kit (RFK) fully utilizes the full capacity of the bulb by incorporating CREE LED into a special heat sink. This ensures that the converted flashlight is able to operate with a real 180 Lumen.

Starting the production of Retrofit Kit (RFK) is an expensive process that involves tooling for the injection molding of the kit components, the quality assembly and testing of the electronics, and the pursuit of more environmentally friendly means of production. The Kickstarter funding goal of $90,000 will help Karl Berger start manufacturing Retrofit Kit. This campaign will end on March 16th, 2015

Whitehouse Landscaping Offers Advice on Flower Care After Snowfall in January Newsletter

Pine Forge, PA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/13/2015 -- After the first significant snowfall of the year, many homeowners have noticed that their gardens appear to have taken quite a beating. Having invested a great deal of time and money into their flowers after last year's brutal winter, gardeners are cringing at the thought of more snow offsetting all of their hard work. Using their years of landscaping expertise, Whitehouse Landscaping has offered advice on flower care after snowfall in their January newsletter. Having spent dozens of winters in the Greater Philadelphia Area, they have developed strategies to prevent the inevitable snowstorms from ruining flowerbeds and shrubbery.

In their latest newsletter, they explain how to protect plants from snow damage, before, during, and after the storm. A common mistake that many make is the heavy spreading of salt to clear their sidewalks. Their landscapers warn that these salt–based chemicals are harmful to plants and homeowners should avoid putting the melts near their gardens. Throughout the course of the storm, Whitehouse Landscaping recommends periodically brushing the accumulation off the plants in an upward motion and to never shake it off.

Once the snow has stopped falling, there are several steps that homeowners should take to avoid further damage. Whitehouse Landscaping, a leader in organic lawn care in Douglassville, says it is important to loosen any snow around the base of the plant. If any limbs are weighed down, clients should loosen the accumulation and allow the snow to fall off on its own. If the homeowner finds that there is ice attached to the plant or tree, they should leave it be and allow the rising temperatures to melt it. Their final tip advises residents to be cautious of where they pile snow from the sidewalk as the weight of it could crush or smother the plants.

Newsletters from Whitehouse Landscaping are released on a monthly basis and contain a variety of information ranging from patio design to lawn fertilization tips in Montgomery County, PA. Those interested in receiving their latest newsletters can sign up for them through the company's website.

About Whitehouse Landscaping
Whitehouse Landscaping is a full-service, family-owned landscaping company located in Boyertown, PA. With extensive industry certifications, Whitehouse Landscaping has many regular customers in the area. They specialize in safe, environmentally friendly landscaping practices and work the natural flora of the lawn to cultivate a healthy, vibrant appearance.
