Washington, DC, February 8, 2010 - Billions of tons of ozone-destroying and climate-warming chemicals currently contained in unwanted stockpiles and discarded equipment will leak into the atmosphere if not recovered and destroyed. But new rules on ozone-depleting substance destruction adopted by a carbon market offset registry, the Climate Action Reserve, could jumpstart new projects in both the U.S. and developing countries to destroy these chemicals and significantly contribute to the protection of the ozone layer and climate system.

"One of the leading challenges facing the international community is how to rescue failing states, those countries most at risk of collapse due to a combination of weak governance, internal violence, and social upheaval," says Lester R. Brown, President of the Earth Policy Institute, in a recent release, "Rescuing Failing States" "Continuing with business as usual in international assistance programs is not working, as evidenced by the continuing deterioration of places like Haiti, Somalia, and Yemen. The stakes could not be higher."

Reuseit.com, (previously Reusablebags.com), is not your typical small business. A catalyst for change, the company has been instrumental in spawning the reusables movement.
Reusablebags.com was launched in 2003 to call attention to the absurdity of society's overconsumption of plastic bags and became a highly influential site for information on the hazards of use-and-toss items as well as a comprehensive online store for reusable products.
