I really liked this article, because it explained how this one company called Filtagroup, was going green long before celebrities and other figures made it so important. This article also explains how certain appliances they have can help with going green, such as their filtafry, which is a frying machine that once you are done with the oil, the company comes in and takes the oil and makes it in to biodisel. Another thing that i found really interesting about this article, is the fact that they were talking about how everyone wants to go green, but most people don't know how. I also like how Filtagroup doesn't call going green a trend, but an "integral piece of the business puzzle". They are going to continue making products to help businesses go green, and i am really interested to see how everything will work out with them.

  1. That's pretty awesome that this company does that and almost started it. I feel like they should get more credit for it. But now it is very much a "celebrity" kind of thing, as well as lots of chains trying to be eco friendly. But it's nice to know somewhat of the 'source.'

  2. Although celebrities are the ones that are making this whole going green thing "big" -- its kind of a good thing. People pay attention & look up to celebrities. Us, in the hospitality & food industry, know how important it is .. but other people in the world dont see it as much as we do. It's good to see that this company started the practice of going green long before it became a trend -- lets hope more places jump on the bandwagon.
