    "Green cleaning is a phrase you've likely heard more often over the years. While the term clearly suggests using environmentally-friendly products over conventional cleaning solutions, what does this trend mean for janitorial services?   The idea that cleaning companies should be mindful of their environmental impact is not a new one, but it hasn't yet been fully implemented in the janitorial industry. The prevalence of green cleaning is growing significantly; this is not a temporary trend in the janitorial market, but a way for cleaning businesses to improve and innovate their service offerings.   What do you need to know about green cleaning in the market today? Here are 5 fast facts about eco-friendly cleaning practices:   Green cleaning products are typically lower in cost than their conventional alternatives.   Green cleaners, contrary to common misconception, cost less than conventional cleaners over time. This is mainly because green cleaning products are potent and condensed, allowing you to use less product while achieving the same result. Research has proven that companies who implement green cleaning products experience less employee illness and injury.   Conventional cleaning products often contain harsh chemicals that may result in irritation of the eyes, throat, and nose. Harsh chemical cleaners can also trigger headaches. The health of janitors and other employees who are in frequent contact with cleaning products is at risk if harsh chemicals are present in the products.   The desire among consumers for environmentally-friendly cleaning products and services is rising quickly. There is more information available to consumers than ever about conventional chemicals and the harm they may cause, both to the environment and people's health. As such, more and more consumers are seeking cleaning businesses that offer green products and services. Cleaning companies will need to implement green cleaning solutions to keep up with consum

Embedding Evidence on Conservation Interventions Within a Context of Multilevel Governa... - 0 views

shared by Arabica Robusta on 25 Feb 17 - No Cached
  • The lack of availability of larger-scale evidence can thus lead to an unfortunate mismatch in knowledge of the relative effects of local-scale interventions versus regional-scale ecological processes, and thus also to incomplete knowledge about where local conservation interventions would be most effective.
  • Integrating specific intervention-guided conservation with a deeper understanding of moderating regional ecological contexts requires combining intervention-driven conservation thinking with “holistic” conservation thinking. As an example, incentives intended to benefit farmland biodiversity may increase one resource, such as food availability, but fail to provide other key resources such as nesting sites or overwintering habitats (Kleijn et al. 2011).
  • Embedding specific conservation interventions within the context of multiscale ecological principles could help alleviate the problem that a focus on local conservation interventions is unable to deal with multiscale phenomena. However, it does not yet address another main criticism raised in the past, namely that existing work on evidence-based practice in general has been overly technocratic in its conception of real-world policy implementation and governance (Greenhalgh & Russell 2009, but see Pullin et al. 2009). In this context, drawing on insights from multilevel governance research could help to understand key challenges of implementing evidence-based interventions in practice. Such insights can be applied to both specific interventions, as well as to a more general, multiscale approach to conservation that is based on guiding ecological principles.

  • An effective response to the wide variety in governance and ecological systems therefore calls for the creation of new decision-making forums that engage diverse constellations of actors and knowledge across spatial and temporal scales, in ways relevant to specific decisions (Paavola et al. 2009). This in turn raises issues of democratic legitimacy and accountability, because for citizens it may become difficult to assume democratic responsibilities when being part of overlapping sites of decision-making (Peters & Pierre 2005).
  • The second step will be to ensure that scientists, policy makers, and practitioners participate in the cocreation of policy-relevant science, going beyond identifying stakeholder-relevant questions for systematic reviews. From the outset, scientists and decision-makers should jointly consider how administrative and ecological scales fit in order to balance democratic legitimacy and ecological efficacy.
  • By being clear as to the types and scales of knowledge needed, and the limitations of existing knowledge to inform policy, decision-makers will also play a role in highlighting knowledge gaps. We thus frame decision-makers as actively participating stakeholders in shaping what evidence base is needed for conservation, rather than framing conservation policy as something that must respond to the agenda of scientists who produce evidence. As a consequence, there is a strong need to develop practical solutions, based on a joint effort by researchers, decision-makers and land-use planners, on how to integrate evidence-based practices and general ecological principles within a multilevel governance framework. Through embedding locally implemented conservation interventions within a broader context, we are confident they would gain both in legitimacy and effectiveness.

    When consumers can know the footprint of a product -- not merely the carbon footprint -- but the full enviro-footprint of every stage from extraction of materials, to converging of materials to production to packaging to shipping through use and disposal for every component of every product (at least for mass produced products) than consumers will begin choosing the better choices from an environmental perspective.
