COUCH POTATO? WHAT ARE YOU BREATHING?

Despite growing evidence of population-wide obesity resulting from the inclusion of so many processed foods into the American diet over the past 50 or so years (an entirely different subject), as a society, we profess to value healthy living in all other respects, with biking and jogging and running and cardio fitness and sports participation dominating much of our lives, and that's a good t...

HOLIDAY MESSAGE

This was sent to me from an old friend. I though it worth sharing (with permission from the author, of course! Thanks Bonnie.)

There should be a mandatory warning label on a...

Now That Gas Prices Have Fallen

Driving in to my office today, I noticed how much faster cars were traveling than they were a month or so ago before gas prices dropped so sharply. I was driving between 65 and 70 mph (65 mph Speed Limit) and being passed like I was standing still. When gasoline was $4+ per gallon, I rarely noticed cars exceeding the speed limit. Now with gas prices dipping below $2 per gallon for the first ...

Is Your Vacuum Making You Sick?

A couple of days ago, NBC'S the Today Show did a piece on how vacuum cleaners spread bacteria. While it has been well known that hepa filters help the spread of pathogens through the vac exhaust, this study looked at bacteria that get attached to the brushes and are then spread throughout the property.

When you think about it, it makes perfect sense. Most of what the ...

Obama On the Environment

Q: What would you do for the environment?


OBAMA: It is critical that we understand this is not just a challenge; it's an opportunity, because if we create a new energy economy, we can create five million new jobs, easily. It can be an engine that drives us into the future the same way the computer was the engine for economic growth over the last couple of decades. We can do it,...

Going Green With Mail

There was an article in Sunday's (Nov 2) Hartford Courant, by Anne Hamilton, discussing whether snail mail or electronic mail has the smaller carbon footprint. While the answer would seem obvious, a study commissioned by Stamford CT based Pitney Bowes Inc., a manufacturer of postage meters and other products used in conventional mail, commissi...

Enzymes: Never wasted, Always Recycled

One of the more frequent questions I get is "what exactly are enzymes?". The short answer is that they are proteins or protein based molecules that act as biological catalysts. In other words, enzymes enable or speed up reactions that would otherwise not occur or take an inordinately long time to occur. The enzymes, unlike s...

Welcome To The nzymSys Blog

With the launch of our new nzymSys website, I wanted to relate some of my personal experiences as I have shifted to let's say a more "environmentally conscious" state. I am a blogging "newbie", so please bear with me.

My name is David Bloom and I head up nzymSys, Inc., a company that develops and manufactures ...
