7th Generation Recycling: a case study in cloud and video surveillance

With four locations in Southern and Northern California, Texas and New Jersey, 7^th Generation Recycling is an organization dedicated to protecting the environment and supporting local communities. Through their partnerships with non-profits, schools and community groups, they strive to accomplish the goal of recycling clothing, shoes and household textiles. Additionally, they strive to assist in funding local programs and ensuring their recycling clothing benefits people in their area communities, as well as those in third world countries.

Founded in 2006 by local Bay Area entrepreneurs, and a chairwoman of a San Francisco Bay Area Native American Tribe, the philosophy behind 7th Generation is based on the values of the indigenous peoples – a belief that Earth’s current inhabitants are responsible for caring for the planet, and in doing so, thinking about the impact of their actions on future generations.
