It pays to be eco-friendly and others want to know the proper measures to be green. Though we all have our own ways of going green, Yesterday's News wants to know which eco-friendly habits are being done. From the simple turning off of the electric switch all the way to proper garbage disposal or even recycling practices, all these count in Yesterday's News Do-Gooder Awards Contest. The contest invites all cat owners to submit stories on how they incorporate eco-friendly habits into their daily lives.

Three winners will be selected to receive $5,000 for themselves, a year's supply of Yesterday's News litter for their cat, and $15,000 for their community.

Budweiser’s Solar Operated Cooling Facility

Posted: 18 Oct 2009 10:52 PM PDT

Solar power has been the new life stream of most business wanting to buck the trend of rising energy costs and of course to adopt the eco-friendly tag. And for Budweiser, the company best known for distributing their beer, has so far been performing up to par since its shift to solar energy to run their operations. To date, solar energy still powers their cold beer storage facility and has been performing magnificently.

The installed solar panels are producing approximately 59 – 62% of the 111,005 sq. ft. building's energy. The average yearly savings for the plant are estimated to be over $100,000. That is a big lift to the savings on expenses which many companies are happy to do without today. With that, you may want to consider installing solar panels. They may carry an initial steep price but you just have to look at the future savings you get from them, the same thing that Budweiser is experiencing now.
