Note that Lake Worth City Commissioner John Szerdi's door hanger (left) is printed on stock paper with no laminate and is already in a serious state of decomposition after only 20 minutes. This door hanger sank to the bottom of the test pan and already is fraying. The door hanger was printed in the City of Lake Worth.
Preliminary Landfill Test result for Commissioner John Szerdi's door hanger: PASS
Now let's examine the door hanger of candidate Ryan Maier. The door hanger floats and is covered with a laminate. Despite several attempts to immerse the door hanger continues to float and is showing no signs of decay. At the top right of Mr. Maier's door hanger you can see a sheen oozing from the door hanger into the test water. A sample was taken. This flyer was not printed in the City of Lake Worth.
Preliminary Landfill Test result for candidate Ryan Maier's door hanger: POOR (LIKELY TO FAIL)
So, the Landfill Test in progress. Check back tomorrow for the test in progress.
*The Landfill Test explained: The Landfill Test is used to determine the likely environmental impact from a door hanger. A Green door hanger will decompose quickly while a polluting door hanger will clutter up landfill space and contains damaging chemicals that harm birds and obstruct the movement of mammals such as the Gopher Tortoise. The Landfill Test is conducted using a 11 by 15 inch metal oven pan, preferably Betty Crocker. The pan is 1 inch in depth. The water is City of Lake Worth tap water drawn and left in the air for 24 hours for all chlorine to dissipate. The subject door hangers were placed in the pan at the same time. The pan is kept out the sun and away from any draft.
