[G320]Go Green Garbage Truck
by Jennifer Hanna Gross, Jen
For Marci Gerdes it was a regular routine. Every Sunday, filling her SUV with $48 of gas to drive to her call center job 35 miles from home. Sitting on Interstate 95 one day she figured there had to be a better way. ?I was stuck in traffic, breathing in carbon monoxide from the tailpipe of the guy in front of me and I thought ?I have heard of the outsourcing revolution and Virtual Call Centers, maybe this could be an answer for me??
Searching the Internet she found her outsourcing position at the virtual call center Freedom TeleWork. After applying online and taking a battery of tests, Marci became a certified TeleWorker and soon after took a position handling inbound customer service for an auto marketing and promotion company. ?I remember my first Sunday skipping the $48 fill up and thinking how between gas, wear and tear on the car, dry cleaning, lunches out, and all the aggravation I could handle, that this was going to be a very sweet proposition for me? said Marci.
Yes, sweet for Marci, but even sweeter for employers and the environment. Employers with a social consciousness and a good eye for their bottom line have been flocking to outsourcing their workforce through virtual call centers. Lloyd Gomberg, Senior Vice President of Freedom Telework said recently ?We have reached the tipping point where it is obvious to all that we must do our part in changing the track we are on, or we will all sink together. With technology solutions such as whisper mode, spy mode, barge in mode, and the recording of all conversations as MP3 files, there is no need to have employees all congregate in a central brick and mortar facility every day. It is too expensive for the corporation, it wears down employees, and it is the major factor in contributing to greenhouse gasses that are ruining our planet.?
Gomberg continued, ?Al Gore in "An Inconvenient Truth" said we must change the way the world does business. And Freedom TeleWork does that by making your firm socially responsible by eliminating carbon emissions using at home workers. What was once a source of pollution is now a source of convenience and pride for your company and your stay at home workforce. Every TeleWorker you hire saves the world from guzzling gallons of gasoline and keeps carbon emissions minimized. And these workers are able to pass that savings off to you, in the form of reduced overheads from brick and mortar facilities and bulky hardware.?
Gore's movie almost sets the stage for the proposition that Freedom TeleWork and other virtual call center outsourcers order up. In a quote the former Vice President said ?If we do the *right* thing, then we're gonna create a lot of wealth, and we're gonna create a lot of jobs, because doing the right thing moves us forward."
According to Marci that is exactly what she is doing- moving forward with her life. Now that she has accepted her outsourcing position with the virtual call center she now has time for her 6 year old son Nate, and feels better without the stress and grind of the daily commute.
Corporate clients keen to take advantage of the big cost savings outsourcing and virtual call centers offer are flocking to companies like Freedom TeleWork . ?They recognize that being socially and environmentally responsible is not an option anymore. People remember what they will have to explain in the future when their kids ask "What were our parents thinking? Why didn't they wake up when they had a chance?" said Gomberg quoting Al Gore.

Organic lawn care is more than just choosing natural materials over manmade chemicals to improve your yard. It's about getting involved with your lawn and adopting better maintenance practices. It's about understanding how grass becomes healthy and strong, then providing the environment for that strength to happen.

There are several areas of lawn care to consider when planning to go organic:
1.Fertilizers
2.Weed Killers
3.Maintenance
4.Pest Control

Fertilizers

If your grass is struggling, or you just want to start your new lawn off right, start with a good soil test, so you know what the soil in your own yard is lacking. Your local nursery/garden center or feed/farm store will usually have organic fertilizers for sale, fertilizers that are environment-friendly and appropriate to your local climate. Some organic fertilizers you'll want to consider include:
1.Manure
2.Fish emulsion
3.Bone/blood meal
4.Seed meal

Weed Killers

Yes, there are alternatives to toxic killers such as Roundup. The most effective organic weed killers usually combine vinegar with lemon juice, which work very well. Clove oil is also a popular substance in organic plant killers.

Maintenance

There are steps you can take that will make a huge difference in your lawn and require nothing more than a little thought. These are easy items that any gardener can manage, even without a green thumb.
"Cut your lawn high. Rather than shearing it down to the ground, if you leave at least 3" of height, you will do amazing things for your lawn.
-Tall grass keeps the moisture in. It protects the ground, shading the roots and providing a shield to keep moisture from evaporating so quickly.
1. Tall grass muscles out weeds. It gets more sun than the weeds so it grows better. If you mow low, you're giving the weeds a better shot at overpowering the grass.
2. Leave clippings on the grass when you mow, especially if you have a mulching lawn mower. This helps with moisture-retention as well as providing nutrients for the lawn.
3. Water properly. Don't water unless the ground truly needs it. When you do finally water, drench the lawn. Short, frequent watering encourages short, weak roots, which gives the grass nothing to hang on to when the weeds move in.

Pest Control

If you truly want to avoid harming the environment, then the organic approach to pest control is a must. There are several ways to handle pests without harmful chemicals, but they require some effort to learn about the bugs attacking your plants and ways to deal with them. The internet makes this sort of homework much easier to do. Look into the following:
1. Attract natural predators. Are the bugs common to your garden a favorite food of birds, ladybugs or praying mantises? Plant flowers around your yard that attract or provide shelter for the helpful creatures, and they'll help keep your lawn safe. Many nurseries offer live ladybugs and mantises for sale. Take some home and set them free.
2. Protect your lawn, and your fruits and vegetables, with plants that work as natural protectors. For example, marigolds help protect corn; onions protect cabbage, and garlic protects the roots of trees and grass.
3. Learn about natural pest sprays and solutions, the sort you would expect to find in old copies of the Farmer's Almanac. For example, traps snails with cans of beer set into the ground; or deal with cabbage worms by spraying them with a mixture of water, flour and salt.

Finally, if you're in crisis mode when it comes to weeds and bugs, or if you've gone a few seasons and haven't seen a noticeable improvement, then it may be time to call in the big guns. Do your research, ask for referrals and interview potential service providers to ensure that they do use organic products. Don't be afraid to ask for the names and ingredients of the products they use.

In the end, maintaining your lawn organically may require more effort and more research than using commercially prepared non-organic products, but you'll have the lawn you dreamed of - along with the satisfaction of knowing that you didn't hurt the environment to get it.
