BULBRITE Donates Energy Efficient Compact Fluorescent Bulbs For BoHo Bodega
10.16.09 | Moonachie, NJ | Helping to recast New York City Delis and Bodegas as a market for
environmentally friendly products, BULBRITE has donated energy efficient
Compact Fluorescent bulbs as an alternative to traditional incandescents
usually found in these venues. BULBRITE is a leading supplier of
innovative, energy-efficient light source solutions and the premier educational
resource for lamping technology.
Participating BoHo Bodegas will sell BULBRITE CFLs to raise money for charity during this five-day event from October 20 through October 25. BoHo Bodega offers customers the classic New York City corner store experience through its ambiance, convenience and theatrics, all the while using environmentally conscious practices and eco-friendly materials for its construction. The project will appeal to the greater public in its typical neighborhood shop atmosphere with fully outfitted shelves, racks, counters, and refrigerators. In addition to the cashier and deli person, professional actors will perform as stereotypical New Yorker bodega personnel around the clock.
BoHo Bodega is implemented by The Council on the Environment of NYC (CENYC), a non-profit organization that improves New York City’s quality of life, through environmental programs that transform communities block by block. CENYC achieves its mission through several programs including Greenmarket, Training Student Organizers, the Office of Recycling Outreach and Education, and The Open Space Greening Program.
Greenmarket is the largest and most successful open-air farmers markets program in the country and connects local farmers with city residents by delivering fresh fruit, vegetables, and other locally produced products to 46 market locations throughout New York City. It supports family farms, preserves farmland and reduces the environmental effects that result from food traveling across the country or world.
Training Student Organizers (TSO) offers academically based service-learning and hands-on programs that educate middle and high school students about the environmental consequences of their choices and their environment while increasing their interest in environmental sciences and issues. It teaches young people to improve the urban ecosystem by planting trees in the watershed, developing Green Building Models, and identifying environmental hazards.
The Office of Recycling Outreach and Education (OROE) improves New York City's recycling rate by educating residents about recycling and waste prevention, and working with landlords to ensure acceptable building recycling programs.
The Open Space Greening Program (OSG) empowers people in New York City neighborhoods to create, manage and sustain community gardens, parks and playgrounds by providing workshops, services, tools, plants and open space information.
