Greenpatch Cold Asphalt Mix
Green is the new black … top. Yes, welcome to the wide, wonderful world of environmentally friendly paving material! What next? Eco-conscious LED electric chairs?
We're using "green" in the metaphoric sense, of course — the new Greenpatch cold asphalt mix isn't actually colored green. But if your co-op or condo has driveways, walkways, playgrounds, patios or, who knows, film noir back alleys were private eyes smoke cigarettes while a mournful saxophone plays, well, you bet your asphalt this may be a great non-polluting alternative to your usual blacktop patch product.

SCIENTIFIC PATHOLOGIST INVESTIGATOR
CALLS GREENPATCH “THE PRODUCT OF THE FUTURE”
by: Leo Gonzales
(Print version of Press Release)

Dr. James Cervino, PhD. gives his all to protect our environment from man-made carcinogens in NYC |
Among his many scientific and environmental achievements, Marine Biologist and Disease Pathologist Dr. James Cervino, PhD. has investigated and testified against land fills and asphalt plants in the wetlands of New York City for recklessly dispersing volumes of carcinogenic substances and
environmental toxins into our shores and ground water. But while performing a thorough review of GREENPATCH by Cold Mix Manufacturing, he not only applauds the product for its use of non-hazardous plant oils and the absence of VOC’s (volatile organic compounds) in its ingredients- but
also commends and supports Dario Amicucci and Glenn Shapiro, the producers of this “ingenious product” for their ethical and conscientious business model.
Storm water and wind is one of the leading vehicles for circulating toxins from road materials into public exposure. Cervino has dedicated his career as a marine pathologist and a molecular biologist investigating the effects of our changing planet- and the many heath issues associated with the terrifying results of harmful man-made toxins released into our soil and water. Following intense rains, deadly compounds from conventional asphalt are reactivated and mobilized— the same compounds that are directly linked with pancreatic cancer, renal failure and respiratory & neurodegenerative diseases
On a political frame, Dr Cervino believes the change is vital, yet a struggle to get accepted on a legislative level. “It’s the people that don’t want change that are blocking products like GreenPatch from being a standard… and used all over the planet (or at least) all over the 5 boroughs”,
states Cervino. “If we did, you will see an immediate reduction in one year in the number of respiratory ailments; such as Asthma and cancer over the long term and in the number cancer cases and respiratory infections in our area”.

| >TERMS & DEFINITIONS |
|
A Green Company: Companies which act, or claim to act, in a way which minimises damage to the environment. As global warming continues apace and becomes an increasingly "hot" topic amongst world governments, more and more companies in the USA and abroad are doing their part to become environmentally more responsible or "green". Companies such as apple have showed some steps towards moving to a greener production environment by phasing out dangerous chemicals and other such materials. |
| > |
|
Sustainable Energy: The provision of energy such that it meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. A broader interpretation may allow inclusion of fossil fuels and nuclear fission as transitional sources while technology develops, as long as new sources are developed for future generations to use. A narrower interpretation includes only energy sources which are not expected to be depleted in a time frame relevant to the human race. |
| > |
|
A Volatile Organic Compound (VOCs) Gases or vapours emitted by various solids or liquids, many of which have short- and long-term adverse health effects. Household products that emit VOCs include paint, paint strippers, cleaning supplies, pesticides, glues and adhesives, building materials and furnishings. Consequently, concentrations of many VOCs are higher indoors (up to ten times higher) than outdoors[5]. Fuels such as gasoline (petrol) and diesel also release VOCs. |
