Produce and the Environment
EGGMan Did you Know?Although the primary reason to enjoy fresh produce is for its taste and texture, and for its health benefits, the environment appreciates it, too. Most of us feel an obligation to lighten our impact on the environment. Produce is the most direct way to convert the sun’s energy to our life sustaining needs. The less processing we subject our foods to before we consume it, the less resources are used. Eating fresh produce lightens our footprint on the environment.

Save Natures Bounty
Of course, once you have the produce home, it makes no sense to waste it. Technically, produce is “biodegradable”. Sounds good, but in a land fill after burial the conditions become anaerobic very quickly. With no oxygen, biodegrading does not happen. Most of the produce that you throw away takes up space in the landfill for generations to come.

Conservatively, the use of the E.G.G. should cut your spoilage in half. Besides the money that saves, it takes a load off our disposal systems, too.

Approved for use with organic food processing
The sachet in the Ethylene Gas Guardian that contains the active ingredient used in the Ethylene Gas Guardian is registered by the Organic Materials Review Institute (http://www.omri.org/). It is approved for use in the processing and handling of organic produce.

MSDS
Although Material Safety Data Sheets are written for industrial and/or large scale storage and handling, customers occasionally ask for a copy.  The MSDS for the E.G.G. is available in PDF form here.
