(PRWEB) February 22, 2012
As Dynamite Specialty Products completes its yearlong switch to environmentally friendly packaging with a new, contemporary logo, the extensive project is helping the company spread the word about its commitment to nature in nutrition for animals and humans.
Dynamite, which has been making all-natural food, vitamins and nutritional supplements for four generations, decided more than 26 months ago that it was time to revamp the logo and packaging to reinforce its commitment to natural ingredients.
It started working with Foerstel Design in Boise to develop a new look and tag line that would stress its commitment to natural ingredients in products for horses, dogs, humans and virtually all living creatures.
The tag line became ?Innovation Guided By Nature, Backed By Science.? Several other tag lines were considered, including ?Honest to Goodness Quality,? ?Naturally Powerful. Scientifically Proven,? ?Solid Science, Naturally Better.? The final version was selected because it succinctly communicates Dynamite?s foundation of doing things naturally while relying on scientifically proven results.
The graphic revisions were a major decision for Dynamite. The logo had been updated one time since its inception in 1982, but it was time for a fresh look.
To create a complete synergistic package with the selected tagline, Dynamite?s goal was to develop a strong graphic image that would also convey its natural approach. The logo uses a strong typeface, Solex black italic, in an earthy color palette.
The graphic ?D? of the corporate logo contains a highly stylized leaf that is meant to reinforce Dynamite?s organic and natural emphasis in its products and as a company.
The label was purposely designed to have a nostalgic feel to represent Dynamite?s longevity in the animal and human supplementation world.
Dynamite also wanted to give a better indication of the products? uses and strengths on the front of the packaging. The logo system was further developed to include interchangeable graphics for different product lines.
For instance, Dynamite?s equine products have a logo that uses a horse icon in the ?D? rather than the stylized leaf. This system can be seen in all the lines, including canine, feline, plant foods, wound care, exotics, avian and machinery. Custom colors also help define each product line within the Dynamite lineup.
?The next step in the process was finding an alternative to plastic containers. When we looked at a warehouse full of plastic containers, we knew we had to do something differently,? said Debbie Johnson, marketing director at Dynamite Specialty Products.
?Our desire to be good stewards of the earth was even more important than our desire to have a new look,? said Callie Novak, Dynamite CEO. ?It took us nine months to complete the process of replacing plastic containers with multi-walled kraft bags made of recyclable paper and sewn at the top. The bags have an earth-friendly moisture and grease barrier that is safe for animals and will break down in the recycling process.?
?We selected our paper bag manufacturer through its affiliation with the Sustainable Packaging Coalition. The biodegradable moisture and grease barrier is a patented product. The manufacturer also uses only Sustainable Forestry Initiative certified paper. The components of the packaging line up with Dynamite?s goals,? Johnson added.
While the switch has been costly in dollars plus taking untold hours of company time, Dynamite expects to recover the costs within two years. “We cut the overall weight of our packaging by at least 300 percent and developed more space-efficient packaging as well, resulting in reduced shipping costs and reduced use of fossil fuels,” Novak said.
?For example, we previously used five-pound plastic buckets that weighed 10.4 ounces. Our new five-pound bag weighs only 1.6 ounces. The 25-pound bucket weighed 1.95 pounds, and the new bag weighs only 3.2 oz.
“The most important consideration,? she continued, ?is the fact that we always have prided ourselves on using ecologically sensitive ingredients in our natural dog food, natural horse feed and other products. Making our manufacturing processes ‘greener’ is an extension of our commitment to the best possible nutrition.
“We’ve also thought ‘inside the box’ by instituting energy-saving practices such as energy-efficient lighting in our warehouse, automatic light switches in our office, paperless invoices and 100 percent recycled paper whenever paper is necessary.”
A family-owned business that has specialized in animal nutrition for four generations, Dynamite Marketing makes products for virtually every member of the animal kingdom. It has long developed food and nutritional supplements for prize-winning racehorses and working dogs across the country. Its specialists can recommend exactly what vitamins, minerals and other supplements best support dogs with arthritis, horses with laminitis, cats whose owners make their own food and cows with digestive issues.
Dynamite has worked with veterinarians and university researchers to produce specialty foods to correct nutritional deficiencies in animals ranging from Canadian muskoxen to peregrine falcons to zoo exotics.
Dynamite uses only natural ingredients, made in the United States for better quality control. Throughout its history, it has always looked at alternatives to animal by-products, antibiotics, chemical preservatives, fumigants, artificial coloring and other additives that have later caused health problems. Its manufacturing processes are so stringently controlled that Dynamite has a separate mill to produce feed for herbivores, such as horses and poultry that are especially sensitive to contamination from meat needed by other species such as dogs and cats. Products include natural horse feed, natural dog food, horse and dog nutritional supplements, and a low-grain dog food.
Dynamite has mills in Idaho and Iowa. Additional information is available at DynamiteSpecialty.com or by calling 1-800-697-7434.

A few nice Save The Earth images I found:
Saving the earth
Image by Payton Chung
This projected piece (with spoken-word overlay) came preprogrammed with some "50 Easy Ways to Save the Earth" style sayings. Most of the anonymous responses, though, came from a rather sillier school of thought.
Three others: "I will recycle my bong water", "I will pleasure myself in the dark", "I will give it a faux hawk."
("What Will You Do?" by Nina Czegledy, Greg Judelman, Deborah Hession and Daniel Barber)
Do you want to save the earth?
Image by allie™
There was a tiny knock on my door. I opened it to see a tiny boy (maybe 5 years old?) with some papers in his hands.
"Do you want to save the earth?" he asked me.
"Sure!" I said.
"Here you go," he said as he handed me one of the sheets of paper.
"Thanks!" I exclaimed.
"You’re welcome," he mumbled as he bounced away happily.
D’aw. Children.

Alien saving the Earth (The Day The Earth Stood Still)
?I come here to save The Earth.? The best statement said by an alien who claimed to be the friend of The Earth, is also the most important message given by the movie. Is human really the biggest enemy of The Earth that even aliens are troubled to come and save the planet from us?
For the concept of environmental protection, I think the inspiration from ?The Happening? is more convincing; at least plants are under the threat of human beings, while none of these seems affects an alien much. Why would aliens concern so much about the planet?
In this movie, general disaster scenes are not impressive as most films of such kind, although the innovative idea of bugs destroying everything is quite magnificent, normally audience would expect scenes like people running away from every direction and building dropping down here and there.
It seems weird for a movie without any love plot, but the one in this movie remains almost un-developed. The main focus goes to the relationship between a woman (Jennifer Connelly) and her young stepson (Jaden Smith) which maybe the storyteller thinks that attracts an alien most (but not audience like me).
I must say I am quite disappointed watching this movie, the scenes were not tremendous as expected; the ideas were not developed as expected; the sentiments were not touching as expected; even Keanu Reeves was not attractive as expected (Looks like a wooden alien without any emotion at all, the only thing interesting maybe Keanu Reeves learnt to say a few Chinese words).

Solar Hot Water Heating and the European Union
To reach this target, the renewable heating sector will have to make a significant contribution since the demand for solar hot water heating and cooling represents 49% of the total energy demand in Europe. The SolarBeam Concentrator can be used for solar hot water heating and for general space heating. The SolarBeam is a thermal system, this means that it uses the sun to heat water. Solar thermal systems are excellent to provide thermal heat at low temperatures ,below 95 C. The applications for this type of thermal heat are endless, and include the following industries: beverage companies, breweries, wineries, dairy and farm, hotels, government, schools, hospitals, residential etc. A study was done by European Solar Thermal Industry Federation (ESTIF) In order to provide the European Union and its Member States with substantiated information on the solar thermal contribution to the 20% renewable energy target and its long-term potential.
Detailed surveys were conducted using a representative sample of five European countries – Austria, Denmark, Germany, Poland and Spain. The information gathered was then extrapolated to the 27 EU countries. To determine the potential contribution solar heating would make to the overall heat demand in the selected reference countries, a model was developed for the future demand – taking into account also energy efficiency measures. Based on this model, the future heating and cooling demand was calculated for the years 2020, 2030 and 2050. The model includes three scenarios and focuses on the following segments: ? space heating of residential buildings ? solar hot water preparation in the residential sector ? space heating in the service sector ? industrial low temperature heat (up to 250

Help protect North Head’s native bandicoots from attack by introduced predators, by joining the Earthwatch 'Bandicoots on the Brink' conservation team.
As an Earthwatch volunteer you’ll spend the day walking through this spectacular area of endangered banksia bushland with diverse birdlife, military remnants and magnificent harbour views, to lure and catch bandicoot predators on camera.
You will use cameras and scent lures to attract and film predators across the entire headland. GPS will then be used to locate and then collect cameras and record a range of habitat characteristics.
The research is designed to deepen our understanding of how feral predators affect threatened native animals living within our urban landscapes. The ‘Bandicoots on the Brink’ project will identify which introduced predator species are present, how they use the landscape and whether there are any particular hotspots for predator activity.
