Interview with Gregory Pitts

12th Episode of GreenNews4U

Here's an interview I did with a very talented artist, photographer, entertainer, producer and actor named Gregory Pitts. We had a great time talking and since that time we have become great friends.

In this interview we talked about all the great things he is doing to help save and bring knowledge to our environment.

Blog Update

As you all know GreenNews4U web page is down. Managing a web page was very time consuming and expensive so I have decided to go to a free form of blogging. Fortunately I was able to save a lot of my posts... unfortunately some of the pictures and links do not work.

It's hard to believe that over the past few years I have interviewed over 30 people that are in essence the "change makers" of the world. To honor them I will be re-posting the interviews of the people that I have had the privilege of interviewing.

I have always enjoyed talking with people and sharing in there passions. I will continue to interview people but not as much as I once did.

If you know someone that would like to be interviewed that is a "change maker" then please reach out to me via Facebook, Twitter, or Linkedin.

GreenNews4U is still very alive and well.

Test Post

This is a test to make sure this blog posts to Facebook and Twitter.

First UL Environment Certification Awarded to Samsung

Sustainability Certifications for Televisions Set Bar for Environmental Leadership ATLANTA, Dec. 12, 2012 - UL Environment, a business unit of UL (Underwriters Laboratories), announces today that it has certified the Samsung 55" LED Television, 46" LED Television to the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 1680.3 Standard for the Environmental Assessment of Televisions. These Samsung television models are the first to achieve UL's sustainable product certification to IEEE 1680.3. "This landmark accomplishment by Samsung provides other television manufacturers with a leadership model to continue to improve products to meet and exceed marketplace sustainability demands," said Sara Greenstein, president of UL Environment. Products that achieve certification to IEEE standards are assessed and audited for a wide range of environmental criteria. These criteria include: environmentally sensitive materials and materials selection, design for end of life, product longevity/life cycle extension, energy conservation, end-of-life management, corporate performance, and packaging. The Samsung 55" LED Television and 46" LED Television have attained Gold level certification, indicating that both products have achieved the highest level of environmental performance recognized by IEEE 1680.3, meeting all required criteria and a minimum of 75% of available optional criteria points. "The electronics industry is evolving at an unparalleled rate, largely due to consumer preference, energy regulations, and corporate sustainability practices. Companies like Samsung are rising to the challenge to lessen the environmental impacts typically associated with these products," said Greenstein. "UL Environment helps manufacturers make and market more sustainable products. We have the expertise to propel them forward, and are pleased to support Samsung in these achievements." UL provides the scientific expertise required to conduct readiness assessment, testing, and certification to the IEEE suite of standards. As a global Product Registration Entity (or PRE) for EPEAT®, a North American environmental rating system for electronics, UL may also assist manufacturers with registering products to the central EPEAT registry.
