Sustainability in Packaging 2011- February 22-24, 2011

Sustainability in Packaging 2011- February 22-24, 2011 This conference is a good indication of the positive momentum being gained in implementing greener business practices. Pay attention to the reduced amount of packaging that is being used in consumer goods and the marketing of that benefit "Now with 20% less packaging!". I have also seen more packaging being marketed as biodegradeable, especially as companies start to evaluate the impact of their products from cradle to grave.

Glad you covered this topic. A few weeks ago we had a conversation going on my website outdoorbabynetwork.com about the need for synthetics to be comfortable outdoors. I noticed that packaging that our 'green wear' comes in is often terrible for our planet. Recently, I came across more goods that are made of natural fibers.

anyways, hope you check out my site and that we can work together in cross promotion if you are into that.
