Help The EnvironmentHelp The EnvironmentHelp The EnvironmentHelp The EnvironmentHelp The Environment

Everyday choices can affectyour family’s health as well asthe environment.

There’s a growing trend amongconsumers to make choices reflect-ing the goals and values that matterto them most. In fact, two out offive people say they’re more in-spired to try a natural product thatdoes something good for them-selves, their family and the planet,according to a recent study con-ducted by Toluna for natural prod-ucts brand Tom’s of Maine.

So where can your familystart? Here are a few ideas foreasy changes:

The BasicsStarting with the products you

use most frequently can be a simpleway to shift your choices to ahealthier place. Many hygieneproducts, such as soap, shampoo,and toothpaste use unnecessarychemicals that can be unfriendly tothose with sensitive skin or aller-gies. Natural ingredients work aswell or better than the artificialvariety, so look for options thatdon’t rely on dyes, formaldehyde

or parabens. Such ingredients di-rectly impact waterways once theygo down the drain. More naturaloptions can be kinder to your bodyand the environment.

Cleaning products like floorpolish, glass cleaners, and bath-room disinfectants can be harsh.Consider gentler alternatives.

Additionally, certain food prod-ucts contain artificial sweetenersor use pesticides. Try switching toless processed foods and buyingorganic when possible. Look forlocally sourced foods for addedfreshness and to reduce overallcarbon footprint in transit.

Support SustainableCompanies

Companies with smart envi-ronmental policies do exist. Doyour research and support brandsthat work to lessen their environ-mental impact, and take pride inthe quality of their ingredients,which should be listed in full onthe packaging.

Brands like Tom’s of Maine,which makes personal care prod-ucts like soap, deodorant and

toothpaste, as well as others, sharetheir progress in helping the planetby publishing goals and results tothe public.

The recently released secondedition of the Tom’s of MaineGoodness Report details thecompany’s approach to ingredi-ents, packaging, waste, water, en-ergy, the community, and its em-ployees. For example, the com-pany has opted to use steam cap-turing technology, ultimately re-ducing water usage.

Additionally, cartons used forpackaging toothpaste are made of100 percent recycled paperboardand can be recycled again afteruse. The company is even lookinginto future “smart packaging” al-ternatives, such as biodegradablepackaging made of potato starch.

What’s Inside MattersAre there really wildflowers in

your toilet bowl cleaner? Ignoreeye-catching packaging and sim-ply read the ingredients.

Seek out a list of simple andunderstandable renewable andnaturally-sourced ingredients.And while you’re reading thatlabel, inspect the material onwhich it’s printed. Minimal pack-aging made of recyclable mate-rials is ideal.

If your town doesn’t take in awide range of waste for recycling,TerraCycle is an innovativeupcycling leader that enlists vol-unteers to recycle waste to makeproducts such as benches, picnictables or deck materials, ultimatelysending less to landfills.

We can all be part of the solu-tion by using greener products. Theimpact of a few simple changescan have a lasting ripple effect thatgoes well beyond your home.

Grand Central StationPost Office Renamed AfterVincent Sombrotto

The House of Representatives passed abill (HR 2291) introduced by CongresswomanCarolyn B. Maloney (NY-12) to renameGrand Central Station Post Office, located at450 Lexington Avenue in New York City,the “Vincent R. Sombrotto Post Office.”

“Vincent Sombrotto was an outstandingleader of the National Association of LetterCarriers who did so much to make sure thatletter carriers were treated with the respectand dignity they deserve. Renaming the postoffice at Grand Central would be a fittingtribute to Mr. Sombrotto’s life and career,”said Maloney. “As the President of NALC,Mr. Sombrotto helped move letter carriersinto the middle class by securing wage in-creases and making sure that letter carriersreceived the labor protections they deserve.Mr. Sombrotto also initiated the life-savingCarrier Alert program and the NALC fooddrive, which continues to be held on theSecond Saturday of every May. To date,letter carriers have collected more than 1.2billion pounds of food for families in needthroughout the United States.”

Fredric Rolando, President of the Na-tional Association of Letter Carriers, cheeredon the legislation: “Vince Sombrotto was anextraordinary leader for the dedicated lettercarriers of the United States Postal Service.He fully understood the value they provide toour economy and our society, and he playedan historic role in assuring that this value berecognized in the treatment accorded lettercarriers. It is worth noting that like manymembers of the National Association of Let-ter Carriers, Vince traded his military uni-form for a letter carrier’s uniform — and he

carried out his duties in both uniforms inhonorable fashion. We appreciate the tirelessefforts of Congresswoman Carolyn Maloneyin working to recognize this extraordinaryleader.” An act of Congress is required torename a postal facility. The bill must now beconsidered by the Senate.

About Vicent Sombrotto:Born in New York City in 1923, Vincent

R. Sombrotto joined what was then the PostOffice Department in 1947 as a part-timeletter carrier after serving with distinction inthe U.S. Navy in World War II. He served asa rank-and-file letter carrier at Grand CentralStation in New York City. Later, as presidentof NALC from 1978 to 2002, Mr. Sombrottoworked to move letter carriers into the middleclass with increased wages and labor protec-tions. To this day letter carriers benefit fromMr. Sombrotto’s efforts.

In 1992, Sombrotto began the NALC fooddrive, which has developed into the country’slargest one-day food drive. Held on the sec-ond Saturday of May, it has to date providedmore than 1.2 billion pounds of food forfamilies in need throughout the United States.

As a firm believer in civic responsibil-ity, Mr. Sombrotto and the NALC workedwith the United States Postal Service andemergency services organizations to estab-lish Carrier Alert. This nationwide programallows carriers to perform heroic and hu-manitarian deeds on their routes includingsaving lives, finding missing children, look-ing over the elderly, and stopping crimes.

Mr. Sombrotto passed away January2013 and is survived by his wife Rae, sevengrown children, and 14 grandchildren.
