TEMP-AIR Thermal Remediation: Innovative Electric Heat Treatment

$

0

The TEMP-AIR Thermal Remediation treatment system is an efficient line of equipment, designed for commercial properties.

Purcellville, VA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/15/2016 -- Pesticides have been found to be moderately effective at killing bed bugs, however, pesticide treatments are typically ineffective at killing hidden bed bugs. "Because of pesticide-resistant bed bugs, many pest control companies have begun using heat treatments to eliminate bed bugs," according to Bobby Anderson, President of Environmental Heat Solutions, Inc.

Heat treatments are an effective method for ridding an area of bed bugs. They eliminate all life stages of bed bugs for a thorough cleaning. Utilizing high-CFM heaters and fans, heated air is distributed throughout the infected area, ensuring the air reaches cracks and crevices to fully eliminate the bed bug infestation. The air is heated to at least 120 degrees Fahrenheit and maintained for hours, allowing the air to permeate fixtures and furniture.

Heat treatments offer faster results than using pesticides. Typically, pesticide treatments require multiple visits spaced out seven to 14 days apart to allow time for eggs to hatch.

About TEMP-AIR
TEMP-AIR offers a variety of products under its Thermal Remediation line, which are designed to effectively and safely eliminate bed bugs. Controlled by thermostats, the heaters release air that doesn't exceed 135 degrees, and the heaters release air in four directions for even distribution. Because the temperature of the air remains within 120 to 135 degrees, potentially infested electronics and furniture can safely remain in the room.

A technician is able to monitor the area during the treatment process, ensuring the process runs smoothly. During the treatment process, a skilled technician makes sure that the proper temperature is maintained to make sure the treatment is successful. TEMP-AIR Thermal Remediation packages allows a technician to monitor the treatment from up to 800 feet away, and a detailed report is printed at the end of the treatment.

Pests Are Becoming More Resistant to Pesticides

$

Pests are becoming more and more resistant to pesticides, meaning that both businesses and consumers should choose something else with which to solve their bed bug infestations.

Purcellville, VA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/15/2016 -- The rate at which we use pesticides is making pests such as bed bugs as well as other insects more and more resistant to them, which is something with serious consequences for a wide range of sectors. As a result, both businesses and consumers should use something other than pesticides as the solution to their bed bug infestations, both to ensure thorough results and to protect the usefulness of pesticides.

Pests are becoming more and more resistant to pesticides for a simple reason. In short, the use of pesticides kills the most susceptible members of a pest population, meaning that the survivors have a higher chance of passing on whatever genes that enabled them to survive. As a result, repeating rounds of exposure to a particular pesticide means that a pest population becomes more and more resistant until eventually they are so resistant that the particular pesticide is no longer useful against them. This is something that is particularly problematic because resistance to one pesticide can mean resistance to related pesticides in some cases.

There are solutions that can be used to get around such resistances, but each one has its own potential problems. For example, saturating a setting with more of the pesticide can sound like the simplest and most straightforward solution, but it tends to have low chances of success because the uneven distribution of pesticides means that there are always safe spots. Even worse, a high concentration of pesticides isn't just dangerous to pest but also to humans as well as our shared environment.

Instead, both businesses and consumers should consider the use of something like Environmental Heat Solutions' heat-based method, which promises reliable results with none of a pesticide's side effects. Better still, this extends the usefulness of pesticides further and further into the future by cutting down on their use, meaning that they will still be here when we really need them.

Pollution Is Contributing to Antibiotic Resistance

Pollution is contributing to the problem of rising antibiotic resistance in harmful microorganisms, which is making some of our most important medical tools less and less useful. For both businesses and consumers, this is a reminder to make sure that waste is handled in the right manner instead of being tossed out whenever and wherever it is most convenient.

Manassas, VA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/15/2016 -- Pollution puts a wide range of pollutants in the shared environment, which results in a wide range of consequences. One example is how countless species of harmful microorganisms are becoming more and more resistant to antibiotics, which is an enormous problem because we are reliant on them to protect ourselves as well as keeping a number of important economic sectors running in a smooth and uninterrupted manner. Although pollution is not the sole cause of the problem of rising antibiotic resistance, it is nonetheless a serious one.

How this happens is simple. In short, the careless handling of waste can introduce antibiotics to the environment, at which point, it will start interacting with the microorganisms living therein. The microorganisms with the most natural resistance will make up most of the survivors, meaning that they will also be the ones to pass their genes onto the next generation. Over time, sufficient repetition of this cycle can make entire populations of microorganisms resistant to the antibiotics that they were exposed to as well as other antibiotics that work in a similar fashion. If said microorganisms are harmful to humans, exposure can cause them to spread to said individuals as well as the healthcare facilities that treat them, thus creating further problems for our perpetually strained healthcare system.

Even more troubling, there is reason to believe that pollution can contribute to rising antibiotic resistance even when antibiotics are not one of the pollutants. In short, an ecologist at the University of Georgia conducted recent studies of the streams at the U.S. Department of Energy's Savannah River Site on a suspicion that non-antibiotic pollutants were contributing to the problem. He discovered high levels of antibiotic resistance in streams that had never been exposed to antibiotics but had been exposed to metals such as cadmium and mercury. Furthermore, he was able to rule out exposure to antibiotics via defecating animals because the high levels of antibiotic resistance were found in streams known to have been exposed to the metals but not in streams with no such exposure. While these results are not enough to prove that non-antibiotic pollutants are contributing to the problem of rising antibiotic resistance in harmful microorganisms, they are nonetheless pointing in that direction.

For both businesses and consumers, this is a reminder of the importance of making sure that waste is handled in the right manner. Those who are unsure should not hesitate to contact waste disposal specialists such as EnviroSolutions for their expertise and experience so that they can do the right thing for the right results when it comes to the shared environment.

Start Planning for the Spring Thaw

Spring is coming in a month's time, meaning that it is time for businesses to start thinking about refreshing their premises so as to maximize their curb appeal. After all, wintertime conditions can be brutal on exposed elements, meaning that some repair and replacement might be needed to restore their function as well as their appearance.

Alexandria, VA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/15/2016 -- Spring is coming on March 20. As a result, businesses should be preparing for the spring thaw, which can result in a number of problems with their premises that need to be fixed if they are to maintain maximum curb appeal. By making their preparations ahead of time rather than waiting until the last moment, businesses can count on getting efficient and effective results in a timely manner, thus mitigating the severity of the potential consequences.

For example, wintertime conditions can cause serious damage to the asphalt used to pave parking lots, meaning that it will have to be repaired and replaced to restore it to its former appearance. This means filling in the cracks and crevices, putting on a sealer to protect the material, and repainting the parking markers if they have faded. Similarly, the spring thaw can leave a lot of dirt, debris, and detritus, which will have to be cleared for the premises to look its best. Just as importantly, dirt, debris, and detritus have been known to cause damage to paved surfaces when left uncleared, both because of being ground into them by passing traffic and because of potentially detrimental chemical reactions to asphalt.

Since a lot of businesses will encounter these problems at the same time, smart businesses know that it is best to make arrangements with commercial cleaning companies ahead of time so that they can get the results that they need when they need it instead of being forced to wait. Better still, commercial cleaning companies such as Atlantic Sweeping & Cleaning, Inc. have the expertise, the experience, and the equipment needed to handle such responsibilities with consummate professionalism, thus freeing businesses to focus on their revenue-earning operations rather than waste valuable resources by forcing their own employees to clean up the aftermath of winter.

Manufacturer of Waterproofing and Graffiti Protection Coatings Places Emphasis Creating Products that Reduce Carbon Footprint

Newport Beach, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/16/2016 -- Over the course of the last 20 years, there has been a surge in popularity for companies who emphasize environmentally friendly products. Businesses of every industry are lauded for their ability to reduce their carbon footprint and that of their customers, and do everything in their power to sustain this world we live in. One waterproof & graffiti protection coatings manufacturer, based in Newport Beach, California is doing just that. Rainguard International recently introduced the super concentrated Eco-PODS, which help customers reduce energy consumption, improve the environment, and significantly reduce overall costs.

Ultimately, the natural resources that occur here on Earth are finite, and it is incumbent upon the current generation of citizens to take strides to maintain and sustain those resources as best we can. From enacting laws to incentivizing recycling programs to simply increasing awareness of environmentally friendly practices, each of us can do our part to make the world a better place for the people of tomorrow. Rainguard does this directly with their Eco-PODS – which improve the natural environment by reducing the environmental impact of products and operations. Essentially, they've made the application of their products easier and less complicated, while also protecting the health and safety of every individual throughout the supply chain.

One of the most popular products produced by Rainguard International is their 6oz Eco-POD concentrate. It makes one gallon of ready-to-use (RTU) product, a dramatic reduction in both storage and weight – which in turn amounts to fewer truckloads of the traditional RTU product types. "The goal here is to reduce our impact on the environment, and by crafting a product that produces the same outcome in a higher concentration, we can accomplish just that," explained the CEO of Rainguard Claude Florent. He continued "We are very proud of the final product we've created and we are confident that our customers will be excited to use it." Rainguard offers a $1.00 rebate for each Eco-POD returned. The returns are then recycled and used again, further impacting benefits to the environment.

About Rainguard International
Since 1969, Rainguard International has been a family-run manufacturer of products designed to "wrap" the exterior of buildings and structures. This focus has allowed them to provide coating solutions for projects throughout the world . . . ranging from Walmart structures, to large infrastructure facilities, to the Athens Olympics, Stadiums, Airports, Highways, as well as multi-family and single-family residences.

Experts Call for Public School District to Correct Inaccurate Website on Wireless Radiation Safety

$

Parents raising Wi-Fi health concerns lead Montgomery County Maryland Public Schools to issue information about Wi-Fi cancer links resulting in a worldwide response.

Teton Village, WY -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/17/2016 -- Fox News reported that Environmental Health Trust (EHT) experts identified numerous false and misleading claims about radiofrequency radiation and children's health on the Montgomery County Public School Maryland (MCPS) School District website. In a letter to MCPS, Lloyd Morgan, senior EHT advisor, detailed extensive errors, adding, "I am appalled that a public agency would rely on and relay outright falsehoods."

Contrary to what MCPS asserts, the International Agency for Research on Cancer, of the World Health Organization, classifies wireless radiation from cell phones as well as wireless radiation from other devices as a possible human carcinogen, Morgan noted.

EHT President Devra Davis PhD MPH commented, "The County assertion that the 20-year old FCC radiofrequency standards 'are not outdated' is wrong. The Government Accountability Office in 2012 reported that the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) 'RF energy exposure limit may not reflect the latest research.' This prompted the FCC to begin a formal reassessment which remains incomplete. In 2013, the American Academy of Pediatrics asked the FCC to update its standards in light of children's growing exposures."

"The erroneous information provided by Montgomery County Public Schools on its website is emblematic of a nationwide problem. Local schools and policymakers are not provided adequate information about the possible health risks of wireless radiation from the federal health agencies on which they rely. The EPA, the CDC and the FDA have not reviewed current science and determined US exposure limits to be safe. Most people assume that the federal government has radiofrequency regulations that protect children from health effects from long-term exposures, but that is a myth. We have no proof of safety," stated Davis.

"Any government agency, in my opinion, that has done a review in the last two or three years and hasn't made a significant change to their safety standard has not done a proper thorough review of the science," stated former President of Microsoft Canada, Frank Clegg, in a Tuesday, February 16, 2016 ABC Catalyst documentary broadcast, which also featured Davis who cautioned, "Children today are growing up in a sea of radiofrequency microwave radiation that did not exist five years ago."

"MCPS extols the virtues of 21st century learning as a wireless classroom, yet the County has yet to consider 21st century best available science that shows wireless may not be such a smart technology after all," stated mother Thea Scarato in the February 9, 2016 MCPS Board of Education meeting. In a letter posted on a local blog started by concerned parents, Scarato detailed the "over 32 false facts" given by the County on wireless radiation health issues. Fifteen letters were also sent by by scientists, doctors and researchers to MCPS calling for minimizing wireless exposures in schools.

In January, Dr. Devra Davis wrote a letter to MCPS raising concerns about the use of Google's Wireless Expeditions Program in classrooms. Davis presented preliminary imaging showing the radiation absorption into the brain of a child from the virtual reality "cardboard" viewer that is a smartphone held up at the eyes of children, and Davis called on the County to reduce such exposures. Environmental Health Trust scientists also wrote to the US Secretary of Education in October 2015, calling for the implementation of both "safe technology" and a national educational awareness program in schools, in order to reduce cell phone and other wireless radiation exposures.

Montgomery County Public Schools is the largest school district in Maryland and the 18th largest in the United States. For three years, parents have been advocating for safe technology in the classrooms. However, the District continues to implement its Strategic Technology Plan, which includes high-density radiofrequency radiation wireless networks in all classrooms and a Bring Your Own Device Policy so that cell phones and other wireless devices are also used as classroom tools.

About Environmental Health Trust
Environmental Health Trust (EHT) educates individuals, health professionals and communities about controllable environmental health risks and policy changes needed to reduce those risks. Currently, EHT is raising health concerns about wireless in schools and recommending safer hardwired internet connection installations. EHT maintains a database of the over 20 countries and municipalities taking precautionary action worldwide to reduce wireless exposures.

How to Win the Battle Against Bed Bugs Using Heat Treatment

$

Is heat treatment the most effective tool of bed bug mass destruction? Is it the best alternative to the use of chemicals? Learn why the battle against bed bugs is being lost and how one can win.

Purcellville, VA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/17/2016 -- Bed bug extermination from one's home is possible. Nonetheless, now more than ever, people need super-specific knowledge to treat their crawly, creepy situation. The good news is that individuals don't need to panic, there is hope.

If bed bugs are resistant to most chemicals, which is the best way to exterminate them?

According to a study published in the Journal of Medical Entomology, bed bugs can resist two types of chemicals - neonicotinoids and pyrethroids. These chemicals are present in most common bed bug treatments available out there. The best alternative to chemical treatment of bed bug extermination is heat treatment. This form of eradication has proved to kill the pests and their eggs.

Professional heat treatments are a convenient and reliable way to eliminate bed bugs in real time. While giving a talk on the merits and demerits of different bed bug extermination methods, Bobby Anderson, President of Environmental Heat Solutions, Inc. said, "Heat treatment is the best killer of bed bugs. In fact, people can never go wrong when using portable heat chambers or heating units to get rid of these stubborn pests." This just affirms the effective nature of heat treatment in eradicating bed bugs.

How long does heat take to kill bed bugs and their eggs?

In addition to wondering what temperature should be achieved to totally kill bed bugs, most people question how long heat treatment takes to completely kill the pests and their eggs. To answer the first question: to kill bed bugs, professionals heat up the infested area using temperatures of 120-140 degrees for not less than four hours. When it comes to the duration it takes heat to completely kill bed bugs and their eggs, it solely depends on the environment. If they are out in the open - which is very rare - this treatment takes just a few minutes. The situation might take slightly longer when they hide in smaller places. For such situations:

- Professionals ensure that the temperature is sufficient to expose the pests and their eggs to thermal kill range
- Professionals make sure that all clothing for treatment are stacked a maximum of three inches thick
- Professionals ensure that they achieve proper air circulation in the treatment environment so that hot air perfectly flows throughout the structure

Getsolarprices.co.uk Advocates Going Solar to Reduce Your Carbon Footprint

Norwich, England -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/19/2016 -- Currently, there are huge concerns about global climate change due to environmental destruction. This can be attributed to the use of fossil fuels and other energy producing methods, so people have started to search for cheap yet clean power sources. The government is encouraging people to generate their own power, and this has led to the use of solar energy.

The global market has seen a reduction in the cost of fossil fuels while solar panel prices are slightly more than the costs of traditional energy sources. However, people would still choose the use of solar panels, wind turbines and hydroelectric sources over burning coal and other substances that will destroy the earth's atmosphere in the long term. This is the main reason why the government is encouraging homeowners to put solar panels on their roofs.

However, if a resident decides to invest in solar panels, solar companies will still have to analyse and look into a number of factors to ensure that production of solar electricity is efficient in providing the required energy to power the entire home. Some of the important aspects are electricity usage or consumption, the available open or unhindered space on the roof as well as the budget intended for purchasing solar panels and installation costs. That's why it is important that householders seek quotes for the supply and installation of solar panels before going ahead.

There are 5 reasons why the government is encouraging people to install solar on their roofs:

1. The growing demand for electricity for core home functions

Because of the fast-paced trends in technology, modern innovations have given birth to the "smart homes" where everything is connected by controls like the security features, the thermostat, the lighting, the home locks and all other appliances that need a great deal of electricity.

2. Vehicles powered by solar energy

Solar-powered cars and other vehicles are now on the rise and families all over the world find them more economical, especially when there is more than enough supply of energy from the sun.

3. Solar energy will reduce the impact on the environment

If people turn to renewable energy and stop relying on fossil fuels as much, there will be an immense reduction in the emission of greenhouse gases. If every home can meet their electricity needs with solar, then the need for burning gas and coal that destroys the ozone layer is diminished.

4. Localised solar power will decrease reliance on big energy companies

Homeowners can produce electricity for their household whilst selling the excess back to the grid, reducing the country's reliance on power plants. This will cut the government's spending on energy as well as helping to make the environment a safer place.

5. Earn a tax-free income with the Feed-in Tariff scheme (FITs)

Since 2010, the government has paid a feed-in tariff to homeowners with solar panels installed on their roofs. The tariff includes a rate for every unit of electricity generated by the system as well as a tariff for exporting excess energy back to the grid. The tax-free income is guaranteed for 20 years, and you could earn up to £5,300.

Getsolarprices.co.uk Takes on the Three Most Essential Considerations Before Buying a Solar Power System

Norwich, England -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/19/2016 -- With the increasing demand for electricity due to homes being highly innovative and advanced, people are continuously searching for the best options to save money on their electricity bills. Although prices of fossil fuels have dropped lately, environmental concerns brought about by the global warming and climate changes have been the focus of many countries.

Environmentalists and the government have recommended the use of natural power sources like wind turbines, hydroelectric power and, of course, solar.They are the best sources of energy and come with fewer risks of destroying the environment. There is no question of whether solar power could supply every household because if every home all over the world invested in solar panels, there will be more than enough to supply the entire earth. After all, energy from the sun is free!

For people who are considering investing in solar panels for their homes, it is best to look into the different details like the available space, how much energy is needed, how many solar panels are required and much more. All of these issues can be resolved with the use of a solar panel calculator.

When thinking about installing a solar power system for a household, there are 3 main considerations to take into account:

1. How much energy is needed to power the entire home

The power consumption of different appliances is measured in kilowatts. Most appliances already have tags and stickers indicating the required number of watts to make them function. With the help of solar panel calculators, homeowners will already be able to calculate how much energy they have to produce using the solar panels.

2. How much electricity the solar panels can generate for household use

The capacity of different sizes of solar panel systems to generate electricity is also measured in kilowatts and can also be measured using a solar panel calculator. However, to get a better estimate of how much a system can generate, it is important to calculate the amount of energy that it can supply to the battery and multiply it with the length of time the solar panels are exposed to sunlight. The amount of electricity generated greatly depends on the number of hours the solar panels are exposed to the sun.

3. How much energy a battery can store and whether it will be able to supply enough electricity for the entire household

The power storage capacity of a battery is measured in AMP Hours (AH). It would be easier to estimate the amount of energy and how many hours the battery can store by converting AH into kilowatt Hours. The conversion is actually done by multiplying the AH with the voltage of the battery. The total will reveal how many kilowatts can be used in a span of 1 hour. The more energy that is required, the bigger the battery needs to be to sustain all the household needs.

Using a solar panel calculator will ensure that you can get the maximum amount out of your system, which means more money in your pocket from the Feed-in Tariff (FIT). The Feed-in Tariff pays you for the electricity you generate and use as well as the energy you export back to the grid, and is tax-free. You could earn up to £5,300 over 20 years with solar panels.

Thousands affected by leaked gas fumes

Woodland Hills, CA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/22/2016 -- After thousands were affected in the colossal natural gas leak at Porter Ranch, Evaluair is opening its services to families affected by the public nuisance created by Southern California Gas Company. Sen. Barbara Boxer visited Porter Ranch and called for an independent air study to be done. Media reports that the leak is "the most significant public nuisance" Southern California has experienced. SoCalGas pleaded not guilty to misdemeanor charges involving reporting of the leak to authorities and discharging contaminants into the air. Specifically, Southern California Gas Co. is fighting a state rule requiring it to report how much methane and other chemicals were released. SoCalGas's depository, 115 defunct oil wells were used as an underground warehouse to hold 80 billion cubic feet of natural gas, the undisputed source of the leak.

An estimated 96,000 metric tons of methane is estimated to have leaked between Oct. 23 and Feb. 11 by the Environmental Defense Fund.

Individuals affected by the fumes complain of a variety of ailments such as headaches, dizziness, vomiting, nosebleeds and other symptoms.

Evaluair, an environmental testing company, has built its reputation on finding volatile organic compounds, noxious chemicals such as formaldehyde, PCB's, benzene and others. "On one side of the country, we have the Flint community suffering water problems. Here in California, now we have Porter Ranch and air quality," says George Hatcher, President of Evaluair, a company which is busy doing realtime air testing in the area. Individuals can schedule testing by calling 800-686-1992.

About Evaluair
Based in southern California, Evaluair is the go to company to perform testing of toxic chemicals in the residential and industrial environment. Our investigations and reports follow your lawyer's strict chain of custody guidelines if litigation becomes an issue.

Zero Gas Carbon Offset Product Ensures No Carbon Footprint

New York, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/24/2016 -- For more than a decade, companies and individuals in the United States and beyond have been working hard to reduce their carbon footprint. The effects of El Nino are felt from California to New York, and global climate change continues to be a real problem that threatens to disturb the future of all the inhabitants of this planet. Fortunately, there is at least one company striving to make a difference, and influence the lives of many with their products. That company is Kiwi Energy, and that product is their carbon offset program, Zero Gas. At its essence, Zero Gas, is their effort to reduce the carbon footprint of people around the globe.

Kiwi Energy's Ecogold plan "Zero Gas" is a carbon offset natural gas program that ensures that Kiwi Energy offsets the greenhouse gas emissions of each customer's natural gas use by purchasing carbon offsets. It is a carbon offset variable rate product that helps us all reach climate neutrality.

As if the incentive to reduce the impact we have on our Earth is not enough, Kiwi Energy is also allowing customers to gain membership into their Ecogold Loyalty Program. Paying customers will have their choice of:

- 7% in Ecogold Rewards on their kiwi energy supply charges
Or
- 5% cash back on their total supply charges after 12 consecutive months

Kiwi Energy is truly making a sizable contribution to the well-being of our natural resources. In fact, each of their products ensure that Kiwi Energy customers' use 100% clean energy by purchasing Zero Gas, carbon offset natural gas.

For those who are not aware, a carbon offset is a reduction of greenhouse gasses measured in tons of carbon dioxide or methane avoided, sequestered or destroyed. Projects such as avoiding deforestation, planting of trees, methane management (such as cow 'gas'), and management of landfill waste gases are the types of projects that aim to reduce the amount of carbon released into our atmosphere and have a 'credit' value. . Kiwi Energy purchases investment credits through the CIKEL Project, Brazil's first certified REDD Project. They work to conserve the amazon rain forest in Brazil, and protect the environment by conserving the area and practicing FSC certified sustainable forest management.

"Zero Gas is aimed to improve lives on a global scale, if every New York resident decided to make their household gas carbon neutral it would be equivalent to removing 4.5 million vehicles from the roads for 1 year or over 17 million trees planted based on the Environmental Protection Agency's calculations," explained Richard Booth, President of Retail Operations. "2015 recently announced as being the hottest year on record, global warming is an issue that effects every person on this plant and it is time to work collectively to reduce these effects."

Virginia Tech 'One Health' Expert to Discuss Complex Issues of Disease on VoiceAmerica

$

0

“One Health” is the notion that the complex problems facing our local and global communities can only really be addressed with a more holistic approach — one that encompasses societal, animal, and environmental components in an integrated manner.

Phoenix, AZ -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/24/2016 -- Kathleen Alexander, associate professor of wildlife in Virginia Tech's College of Natural Resources and Environment, discussed One Health and her work at Virginia Tech and in Botswana on the VoiceAmerica program Our Wild World at 11 a.m. Monday, Feb. 22.

"It is no longer enough to evaluate the health status of an individual in isolation. We must engage the complexity of the system, such as land use and other changes that have occurred where the patient lives, interactions with animals and other humans, water and food, and household responses to disease," said Alexander, a wildlife veterinarian and co-founder with Mark Vandewalle of the Center for African Resources: Animals, Communities and Land Use in Botswana.

"Our work in Botswana crosses scales and disciplines, from using molecular genetic tools at Virginia Tech to evaluate microbial population dynamics in the river flood plains, to the inclusion of how health-seeking behavior and health belief systems at the household level can influence disease reporting and treatment. An integrated approach is necessary to address the increasing number of global challenges that confront us," she explained.

She conveys a sense of urgency in the VoiceAmerica interview. "We need to actively engage this complexity and make sense of it. We need to identify the coupling points that link humans, animals, and the environment, and how these interactions influence critical outcomes. Resiliency allows a system to continue to deliver services in the face of change — to a point. But the systems are changing and by the time we realize how, we might not be able to fix it."

Alexander, who is an affiliate of Virginia Tech's Fralin Life Science Institute, and Vandewalle, an adjunct member of the wildlife conservation faculty at Virginia Tech, have been working with local communities integrating scientific approaches with traditional understanding in order to identify interventions. "Part of One Health is to reach out to stakeholders," Alexander said.

On VoiceAmerica she talks about conveying her research to the government, doctors and nurses, community leaders, and households in Botswana and listening to them in return. "The chiefs remind me that my thinking is limited," she said. "I want to bring that to my students — that the real part of being clever is listening. We need to identify and incorporate nonformal as well as formal sources of knowledge to address increasingly complex problems."

About Kathleen Alexander
Alexander's National Science Foundation funded-work includes, for example, examining how processes that link the environment, wildlife, domestic animals, and humans in dryland river systems in southern Africa drive the accumulation and movement of waterborne disease across the landscape, developing integrated models that can be used to forecast waterborne disease epidemics, and investigating how restricted water access due to human activities can influence wildlife populations and in turn, how certain species, such as elephants, can impact water quality and, potentially, human health.

Reports Draw Attention to Rising 'Indoor Pollution' Risk: Top Cleaners Comments

London, England -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/25/2016 -- A number of newspaper features have drawn attention to what is known as the increasing issue of 'indoor pollution': a situation where modern, highly-insulated houses could be contributing to negative health. Consideration of this issue comes particularly just after Christmas and New Year – as this is a time of year when many have been artificially scenting their houses with candles, cleaners and air fresheners. A number of studies have highlighted that heavy usage of cleaning products and agents in our homes during the winter months could thus be a kind of 'pollution' – as exposing people to chemicals and additives, incubated by warm housing. A constructive way forward is seen to be the use of professional, safe cleaning products and well-spaced intense cleans, rather than small sessions of heavy product use.

In the UK, homeowners are often known for their fondness for brightly-coloured, highly-scented cleaning products – though when used in audience, it is seen that these could be responsible for having particularly 'pollutant' effects. It is thought that one of the biggest 'indoor pollution' risks is caused by people using too many cleaning products, often to 'mask over a problem rather than deal with it – for example using excessive air freshener rather than facing source of odour. Responding to this effectively is important and keen to comment were experts Top Cleaners:

"The recent attention towards 'indoor pollution' shows that there is a potential risk of people being exposed to excess chemicals within the home, especially if they rely on or over-use conventional cleaning products. Instead, a long-lasting deep clean is what is recommended – especially of large-scale home installations such as carpets - something we offer effectively here at Top Cleaners, using the finest quality solutions."

Reducing the Weight of Packaging Opens Up New Consumer Opportunities: Uwrap Comments

$

Blackpool, Lancashire -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/25/2016 -- A new report released by the environmental newsletter Use Less Stuff (ULS) has revealed that packaging choices are increasingly driven by customer perceptions and requirements. Especially notable in 2016 is that customers are concentrating on sustainable and ethical solutions; associating this with quality. Hence there is pressure, in order to retain popularity, for packaging to be streamlined and minimizing wastage; hence why more customers than ever are equating a low packaging weight with a higher quality product. Therefore, making their packaging as sleek and efficient as possible could be considered the way forward for businesses wanting to attract further custom.

Ensuring that packaging is light and efficient can be carried out through a range of methods, though a popular and time-proven technique is through shrink wrapping. As the report also revealed that many packing designs are driven by customer perceptions, shrink wrap could be considered ideal as it offers a complete coverage yet still allows the consumer to see and interact with the product. It is also thin whilst offering a potentially air-tight seal. Keen to comment on the importance of shrink wrap and quality packaging for consumers was Uwrap, and a spokesperson had this to say:

"More people are picking products with a streamlined, slick packaging. Bulky, heavy packing is losing popularity for a range of reasons; it is not only cumbersome, but costs the environment and often is pricier for customers too. Shrink wrap moves away from excesses and provides a complete solution which can be lower on waste and weight, yet with plenty of versatility. That's why we provide a range of new and used shrink wrap machines here at Uwrap."

Willoughby, OH -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/01/2016 -- Floormat.com's green products lead the race in environmentally friendly design. Their products include all-natural commercial hand cleaners, photo luminescent exit signs, low energy heated mats, and carpet mats of recycled materials. Floormat.com has been in business about sixty years, specializing in custom floor matting, a heated floor mat, and safety solutions.

They began as a distributor of 3M Safety-Walk, a pressure sensitive anti-slip tape, and 3M floor matting products, but later expanded, becoming a distributor of all the major producers of anti-slip tapes and their matting products. They began creating special sizes, shapes, and creating their own anti-slip and matting products to meet their customer's needs.

There are many uses for their anti-slip tape and treads. They're great for construction sites and playgrounds because they prevent slips and falls, and works well even around oil, grease, and water, whether indoors or outdoors. Although they're designed for safety by improving foot traction, they also draw visual attention to stair treads and other areas that may require special slip-resistance. Special cut pieces meet the needs of airline and other industrial applications, while the larger surface provides more friction in even the wettest areas, which are ideal for military, industrial, or commercial applications such as safety walks. They also provide glow in the dark safety tape for power outages, non-abrasive tape for showers, pools, and boats, and special safety floor mats for walk-in freezers, ramps, and cooking applications.

http://www.floormat.com is the leader in the industry where mats are concerned as well. They offer plenty of options, from heated mats and entrance mats, to industrial, logo, and floor mats. The heated mats melt snow and ice while providing warmth. The entrance mats come in carpet and rubber for use indoors or out. And the industrial and floor mats can be used as any component of a mat system or to protect or decorate flooring.

The company is also concerned with providing eco-friendly green products. Floormat.com's environmentally friendly products from recycled materials and also products that help reduce energy consumption. They provide a commercial all-natural hand cleaner as well as non-toxic pest control to repel birds, nuisance pets, and deer with natural, non-toxic materials. Their wide variety of heated floor mats eliminates the need for space heaters, while their photo luminescent eco exit signs use zero electricity and provide an environmentally friendly solution to building safety.

The combination of social media and mobile devices has made bed bug control more important than ever because the news of even a small infestation can spread with incredible speed.

Purcellville, VA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 03/04/2016 -- The number of mobile users has soared in recent times. In fact, it is predicted to continue soaring for the foreseeable future, both because of its unrivaled convenience and because of the increasing capabilities of mobile devices. This has made some business issues such as bed bug control more important than ever because the combination of social media and mobile devices can spread the news of even small infestations with shocking speed, thus causing lasting damage to the reputation of infested businesses.

In short, the rise of mobile devices means that clients can snap photos of bed bug infestations whenever and wherever before posting them on their social media profiles as well as online review sites. By posting their photos as well as their online reviews, they can spread the news to their contacts, who will in turn, spread the news to their contacts. In this manner, the news of bed bugs can spread far and wide within a matter of hours with corresponding consequences for the company's reputation.

Businesses can prevent such problems by being proactive when it comes to bed bugs. For example, simple practices such as checking for bed bugs before bringing in potentially-infested items can produce significant reductions in their chances of becoming infested. Furthermore, acting as soon as possible on the potential signs of bed bugs by bringing in canine teams can minimize the chances of the infestation being revealed in the most damaging manner possible. Finally, businesses can even recover from their blunders by making their contrition known and acting to compensate their clients for their problems.

To learn more about bed bugs and preventing the spread of bed bugs, interested businesses should contact bed bug specialists such as Environmental Heat Solutions. For that matter, such specialists can also provide a helping hand when it comes to bed bug detection and bed bug extermination, which should provide infested businesses with the best relief from their bed bug control issues.
