Thought you might find that interesting. Those are the tenets of the global elite, NWO crowd. I get a kick out of people claiming the environmentalists are killing us with their demands to save wildlife, cleanup industry and by their preventing us from drilling off our shores when the financiers of these industries and the financiers of the environmentalist movement are the same people. If we listened closely we might hear them laughingly say...foolish goyim.

as a company we could do alot morte than what we are, but what I have seen at our terminal is mostly lack of ambition when it comes to throwing things out,and far to much what some think of as junk wood gets thrown out daily, but once again everything starts at the top.......its called making people aware of what should be thrown, and where it should be thrown to, just my thoughts......

Default Green?

I looked into getting a paper retreiver to recycle paper like the ones at teh schools. $45 a month and $200 a dump. Cheaper to toss into the big yellow dumpster. We have not converted to 100% LCD screens that use 10% of the power and do not produce heat. We do not turn off computers on the weekend (or lights). Sale cars, city trucks and hostlers could be purchased to burn propane at facilities with tanks. Timers in closets and bathrooms to turn off lights. Encourage employees to recycle paper, plastic, cans and other material by provided proper containers and selling the products. Sell broken wood to pallet companies that use a chipper to create mulch. Just some random thoughts.

Default Con-Way going Green!!!!!

From my limited experience, I have seen Con-Way limit the trucks to 62 MPH, and limit idle time to 2 and 1/2 minutes.
I have also seen the furnace run 24/7 while the office rats run fans to keep cool.
I have also seen the a/c run 24/7 , while the office rats run portable heaters to keep warm.
Somehow, I cannot understand how we are going green!
Our dumpster is still 85% full of wooden pallets which are headed to the landfill, instead of being re-cylced.
Con-Way going Green is a Crock of S*** with a load of slime covering it. The only way we are going Green is in Dollars and Cents!
In my humble opinion, the whole GREEN thing is for a TAX write off, or energy credits!
Come Con-Way.....show us that you are concerned......sell, no, better yet, give all those pallets to somebody who will re-cycle them..............until then, I will idle my tractor as I see fit to keep warm or cool!!!!!!
