Cowboys Stadium Gets Greener
27 Enero 2011 - 11:27AM
The Dallas Cowboys and Totally Green Inc. (Pink Sheets:TLGN)
announced today that they've entered into a five-year sponsorship
agreement. It's one of the highest profile deals to date for
Totally Green, a Tulsa, Oklahoma-based environmental innovation
company, and a significant step for the Dallas Cowboys
sustainability efforts.
As marketing partners, the two organizations have the expertise
to extend the reach of high-priority green initiatives that so many
American corporations are striving to implement. An ORCA GreenTM
Machine has already been installed in Cowboys Stadium where over
two million fans a year come for games, concerts, tours and
entertainment. This state-of-the-art bio-composting reactor
manufactured in Tulsa, Okla. by Totally Green Inc. is being used by
Legends Hospitality, the food and beverage provider for Cowboys
Stadium. The reactor turns organic waste that would have ended up
in a landfill – up to 2,400 pounds per day – into nutrient-rich
grey water within 48 hours.
"The Dallas Cowboys strive to be the best in all endeavors
undertaken by our organization both on and off the field," said
Jerry Jones, Owner of the Dallas Cowboys. "We are committed to
staying on the leading edge by embracing environmentally friendly
practices at Cowboys Stadium. Adopting the technology Totally Green
has developed is another way we can make a difference for our
community."
The ORCA GreenTM Machine works by utilizing non-hazardous
microorganisms in conjunction with biochips. It comes in three
sizes, suited to meet the needs of most industrial kitchens, and is
fully self-contained.
Use of composting practices is widespread in Europe and Asia,
but still rare in the American marketplace. The Dallas Cowboys
organization is the first U.S. sports franchise to install one of
the sophisticated reactors. Rob Phillips, president of Totally
Green, said he expects significant growth of the company because
the ORCA GreenTM Machine enables businesses to go green and stay in
the black.
"With our uniquely advanced system, customers dramatically
reduce garbage disposal costs, tipping fees, and water and energy
usage," Phillips explained. "The ORCA GreenTM Machine makes good
financial sense and, because it reduces the amount of garbage sent
to landfills, it makes good environmental sense."
Totally Green was founded in 2003, as Naturally Iowa LLC. The
company, which became known as Totally Green after a
recapitalization in 2010, also produces a line of bottled water
with Ingeo™ bottles made exclusively from plant-based materials.
Totally Green's "Green Bottle Spring Water" Ingeo™ bottles degrade
completely in industrial-grade compost piles in as little as 30
days and can be processed in the ORCA GreenTM Machine as well.
A variety of organizations nationwide currently use Totally
Green products in their daily operations including the United
States Departments of the Interior, Agriculture, and State; the
General Services Administration, the United States Capitol, Morgan
Stanley Smith Barney's corporate headquarters in New York City and
Emory University. Several food processing plants like Whole Foods
also utilize the ORCA GreenTM Machine to process scraps and
minimize their environmental impact.
At Totally Green Inc., we feel a strong responsibility to
protect our environment by being a pioneer in the introduction of
compostable bottles into the marketplace and as well as providing
an alternative to landfills and other waste disposal options. For
