THE Numer 1 Flushable doggy doo bag.<BR/><BR/>FLUSHADOO is a flushable, water soluble, eco friendly, doggy doo bag. It is the modern GREEN alternative to plastic doggy doo pick up bags. It is safe for septic tanks and easy to use.<BR/>Most importantly, FLUSHADOOs stay out of landfills, oceans and helps to keep our waterways and planet clean. <BR/><BR/>Sadly, plastic doggie doo bags are both prolific and devastating. During the 1,000 years they take to decompose they leak a toxic mix of plastic particles and dog waste. Bacteria seeps into groundwater by poor dog waste practices. <BR/><BR/>Our waste is strictly treated so why should pet waste be different? Dr. Gurminder Singh of the UCLA Green Institute believes FLUSHADOO is the environmentally friendly and responsible way to dispose of dog waste. <BR/>Untreated dog waste is washed into rivers, lakes, bays and oceans by rain. Waterways are adversely affected by dog waste. Scientists have even labeled this concept "The Fido Hypothesis." Dog waste contains E. coli, Salmonella, and Bellyworm. <BR/><BR/>Though the EPA is gradually requiring states to comply with the Clean Water Act, currently most dog waste sits in plastic wrapped time-bombs in landfills. In addition, over the last 50 years, every piece of plastic that has made it from our shores to the Pacific Ocean has been breaking down and accumulating in the central Pacific gyre which is now referred to as the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.<BR/>Be part of the POO-LUTION solution, by using FLUSHADOO on your next walk with your four legged best friend. Say NO to plastic and JOIN THE MOVEMENT by using FLUSHADOO.<BR/>For more information about how you as a dog owner can help keep our planet healthy visit www.FLUSHADOO.com or call 877-DOFLUSH. <BR/><BR/>also...take note!<BR/>FLUSHADOO helps support HEAL THE BAY (www.healthebay.org) in Santa Monica, Ca.<BR/>FLUSHADOO is a California based company. <BR/>FLUSHADOO are available online--and at certain retail stores.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4841621982924656691.post-59047681048035318332008-04-30T11:04:00.000-04:002008-04-30T11:04:00.000-04:00How can you say it is bad to fly?

If you add up the carbon emissions produced by the total number of cars it would take to transport the number of passengers that fly versus the carbon emissions of planes, I believe you will reach a different conclusion than it is bad to fly. -PamAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4841621982924656691.post-51148194601395735922008-04-30T11:02:00.000-04:002008-04-30T11:02:00.000-04:00How can you say it is bad to fly?
