Global Warming is primarily caused by increased carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping emissions from the burning of fossil fuels and clearing of forests.

Some of the most obvious signs of global warming are visible in the Arctic, where rising temperatures and melting ice are dramatically affecting the region's unique landscapes, polar bears, and other wildlife-as well as people's lives and livelihoods.

Polar Bears in the brink of extinction

Across the globe, other early warning signs include melting glaciers, extreme heat, shifting ranges of plants and animals, and the earlier onset of spring. It is our responsibility to act now and implement sustainable means that prevent and reduce CO2 emissions and deforestation.

Deforestation

Fresh Pak Eco-Sheet™ plastic slip sheets are manufactured from plastic bottles and bags that come from curb side recycling programs. We are proud to divert over 50 million pounds (1,250 full truck loads annually) of these types of plastic waste from entering our landfills and fabricate this waste into a sustainable material handling product which is an alternative option to wood pallets.

Companies using Eco-Sheet™ Plastic Slip Sheet are able to:

• Help divert 50 millions pounds (1,250 full truck loads) of plastic bottles and bags from entering landfills
• Use a material handling product that is 100% sustainable, while eliminating the use of wooden pallets

• Significant reduction in Co2 emissions by cube load optimization (up to 25%)

• Less freight means less packaging

• Decreases wood pallet consumption and deforestation

Eco-Facts:

• 48% of US hardwood production in 1992 was for hardwood pallets.

• 54% of these pallets are used once and thrown away.

• Rainforests once covered 14% of the earth's land surface. Now they cover a mere 6% and will be totally consumed in less than 40 years

• 1.5 acres of rainforest are lost every second

• Half of the world's species of plants, animals and microorganisms will be destroyed or severely threatened over the next 25 years due to deforestation

• The world is losing 137 plant, animal and insect species every single day due to deforestation. That equates to 50,000 species a year
