What's
Endangering Our Earth?
Jeff Hernandez
The everyday items that are meant
to facilitate our lives, in fact may be harming us more than we
bargained for. Organic chemicals are extremely cheap to produce
and are very effective in their job functions. |

Forward to Clean Energy

Fortunately, solutions exist and
if we are able to raise awareness and convince our policy makers to
consider it a priority, we can all look forward to a bright, energy-rich
future instead of one marked by environmental, political, and social

Rough Around

Invinoveritas.com Technically,
first thing in the morning is the very best time to taste wine since
your palate is fresh and unviolated. But I don't do it: the sight

This past October, photographer Michael Weintrob
had the opportunity to venture deep into the culture of Peru,
with his camera and designer, Nicole Linton. As the founder of
the art collaborative, è bella, Nicole creates high-end
hand crafted rugs, pillows, wall hangings, personal accessories
and clothing while supporting Quechua communities in the high
Andes of Peru.
|
The philosophy of é bella combines creativity
and innovation to promote a more peaceful and socially responsible
world.
|
Since 1999, è bella has become
a bridge between cultures, an alternative to labor intensive factories,
and a provider of sustainable incomes for artisan families and their
communities.
|
|
The finished products are collaborations from diverse
cultural backgrounds, uniting them through the language of art.
