Written By Rick Siegel. LOS ANGELES — There’s a drycleaner in my neighborhood that brags that, “The only greener way to care for your clothes is to use a rock and a stream.” That drycleaner has no solar panels, uses fluorescent lighting (which remains lit 24 hours a day, though the business is closed for 10 of those hours), has no reusable or even bio-degradable packaging, and is in fact a perc cleaner. Why does the business advertise itself as green? “Because consumers like green.”
Our prez, Jennie Nigrosh, was recently interviewed by JP Selects about Green Garmento, the GTL bag, and more!

Orginally Published on the News-Register: June 8, 2011
By GAIL OBERST Of the News-Register The owners of Alpine Cleaners in McMinnville are offering their customers a new way to be "green" - by eliminating the giant plastic bags that traditionally cover dry-cleaned clothes. For a one-time fee, sister and brother owners Patti Jeanfaivre and Allan Wright will replace the single-use plastic bag with the "Green Garmento," which can be used both as a laundry duffel and garment cover. Customers who don't purchase the Green Garmento bag will get instead a biodegradable poly bag on their clean clothes, which is non-toxic and breaks down in the landfill within two years.
Reusable dry cleaning bag innovator The Green Garmento™ introduces two new products to help the environment AND dry cleaning industry’s bottom line
Two and a half years ago The Green Garmento™ entered the market as the first non-woven polypropylene all-in-one reusable dry cleaning garment bag, with proprietary, user-friendly features like handles, a shoulder strap and a side zipper.
(McMinnville, OR) – Already transitioned into an environmentally friendly cleaning process with GreenEarth Cleaning solvents, Alpine Cleaners is expanding their earth-friendly practices by setting their sights on phasing out single-use drycleaning plastic.

CHICAGO — I confess: I was once about as eco-unfriendly as you could get. I drove a gas-guzzling car, believed a light off was a light wasted, and even though the City of Los Angeles provided me with the appropriate bins, I couldn’t be bothered to separate my recyclables. What impact could one person have, anyway?
