A Commitment to the Environment
Improperly disposing of medications can lead to pathogens and chemicals leaching into our waterways and water supply, endangering marine life and threatening access to safe drinking water. Mail Back Meds ensures these risks are eliminated through our eco-friendly medication disposal process.
We go even further by partnering with one of the largest Waste-to-Energy (WtE) facilities, turning potential environmental hazards into sustainable energy solutions.
How We Support Sustainability
1. Reducing Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions
For every ton of waste processed at our Energy-from-Waste (EfW) facility instead of going to a landfill, nearly one ton of greenhouse gas emissions is avoided. By choosing Mail Back Meds, you’re directly contributing to a significant reduction in harmful emissions.
2. Generating Green Energy
Our process doesn’t just dispose of waste—it creates something valuable.
-
The heat generated during incineration is converted into electricity or used to heat buildings, providing renewable energy for homes and businesses.
-
This approach reduces reliance on non-renewable resources and supports sustainable energy initiatives.
Why It Matters
Every medication safely disposed of through Mail Back Meds contributes to:
-
Cleaner Waterways: Preventing harmful chemicals from contaminating our water supply and ecosystems.
-
Reduced Landfill Waste: Diverting waste from landfills minimizes long-term environmental damage.
-
Sustainable Energy: Transforming waste into renewable energy benefits our communities and reduces our carbon footprint.
