Lafe Goes Another Shade of Green... Green Energy Now Powering Lafe's Offices & Warehouse
Lafe's Natural & Organic Body Care, a company known for social responsibility and producing high quality USDA certified organic personal care products, is now using Green Energy.
AUSTIN, TX, August 05, 2010 /Beauty PR News/ -- Lafe's Natural & Organic Body Care, a company known for social responsibility and producing high quality USDA certified organic personal care products, is now another shade of "green." Through Austin Energy's GreenChoice program Lafe's Natural & Organic Body Care has signed a long term agreement for 100% green power generated from clean, renewable sources. At almost 800 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) in subscriptions and growing, Austin Energy's GreenChoice is the nation's most successful utility-sponsored green energy program.
"Today, the increasing energy demand and the need for clean power generation leads everyone's mind to the concept of renewable energy sources," explains Lafe's Natural Body Care founder & CEO, Lafe Larson. Austin Energy receives electricity from huge wind turbines located in West Texas that are equipped with a rotor or blades to convert the wind's energy into rotational shaft energy.
"We are very excited about implementing the program in our offices and warehouse. As a company dedicated to eco-friendly business initiatives for a greener environment this marks another step in complementing our core business with the reduction of our carbon footprint," shares Larson. Abundant, renewable, and free, wind energy has been the fastest growing energy source since 1990. Air has mass, and when it is in motion, it contains the energy of that motion ("kinetic energy"). A wind energy system transforms this kinetic energy of the wind into mechanical or electrical energy that can be harnessed for practical use.
The Lafe's brand is based on the conviction that all people should make healthy choices in today's all-things-synthetic world. As "green washing" becomes more mainstream and boundaries of what's truly natural become blurred the ever evolving company continues to maintain the highest quality green standards. "We are proof that it doesn't take a huge financial investment to make a difference in the environment," says Larson. "Our company has also been shifting to green practices in dozens of small ways."
