My name is Steve Mason, I am a chemist and company owner, and have been in the chemical business over 35 years. Our company, Waco Chemical & Supply Co., located in Dalton, Georgia, will start our 29th year in August 2008.
Waco Chemical has recycled over 500,000+ pounds of industrial chemicals and raw materials that would have been disposed of in a chemical land burial facility. As a chemical company, we do not produce any hazardous waste and we completely recycle all our chemical residues for re-use and do not flush any chemical residues to the local Dalton sewer system.
I started the Chemically Green blog for several reasons: I care what kind of environment we will leave for our children and grandchildren and as a chemical company; we want to be green stewards of the environment in Dalton, the state of Georgia, the U.S.and the world. We would also like to point out different environmental views and bring to attention the fact that certain government policies pay out subsidies that should be researched thoroughly before these programs are started, so that taxpayers don’t end up paying billions of dollars for little results.
The Chemically Green blog will focus on environmental issues that are affecting our lives and our pocketbooks. The green revolution is here and will on going for many years. So called “green chemicals” are being sold on a regular basis and while some are true green chemicals, others actually contain hazardous chemicals. We will review a lot of these products and let folks know about which products are green and not so green. Chemically Green welcomes and looks forward to your comments as we explore the world of being - “Chemically Green”.

@Pawel d brzozowski: Thank you for your gracious comments. I hope we can get the message out to folks about corn ethanol is the wrong horse being rode for an alternative fuel source. Check out our latest draft about flooding of corn crops causing highest prices ever for corn. A lot of information people need to read and will be better informed after reading.

@Joe: thank you for your comments. There are plans on the internet for an individual to make their own ethanol. If you plan on making your own methanol and make certain amounts, their are government applications that you might have to fill out. Unfortunately, you are correct, it is time for America to get off their duffs and lets get this oil situation taken care of, once and for all. Our do nothing government has forgotten everything except wanting to control and take care of the lazy cry babys and tax us to death.
