Green Branch

A Green Branch promotes sustainable construction and design.

“Green Branch” is a federally registered trademark to denote sustainable construction and design of retail banking locations. This term was granted as a trademark by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office on Oct. 23, 2007.[1] to The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. (NYSE: PNC). These branches are designed and constructed to reduce costs, increase efficiency and productivity, and improve the health and vitality of the surrounding communities.[2]

The basis for the federal patent office’s approval of PNC’s trademark application included the determination that financial and banking services are not generally associated with ecologically efficient characteristics[3]. With 55 buildings (as of September 2008) certified by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) in Washington, D.C., including 53 Green Branch locations, PNC has more green buildings that any other company on in the world.[4]

How to Recycle Compact Fluorescent Light Bulbs


Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy Step1
Check with your municipality for drop-off points where they accept items containing mercury. Different states have different regulations. For information on your state's recycling laws, see the link below.
Step2
Put the bulb in two plastic bags. Most states require this to protect the environment in case the bulb gets broken.
Step3
Check to see if there is a retailer in your area that takes the old bulbs. Ikea stores have an extensive recycling operation for CFLs. Be aware they may charge a small fee for disposal.
Step4
Check to see if your state allows you to dispose of the bulbs with your weekly trash. Many have relented on recycling the bulbs to get more people to use them and save energy. You may still have to double-bag them though.
Step5
Dispose of broken bulbs by scooping up their fragments and powder using pieces of stiff cardboard and placing all of the materials in a sealed plastic bag and then putting that bag inside another one.
Step6
Use disposable rubber gloves when handling broken bulbs. Never use your bare hands. Make sure you wash your hands thoroughly after handling the broken bulbs.
