GREEN BUZZ: Martha Stewart, Solar Rock Festival

Martha Stewart is one of the craftiest people of our time. Did you know she has her own working farm?

Wal-Mart is making plans to go green. There have been new ad campaigns promising more eco-friendly products on their shelves. It is hard to tell whether or not this is just another scam to jump on the green bandwagon to get more “green” in their pockets.

Thanks to MTV’s Choose or Lose campaign and the people of Arizona, the second annual Solar Rock Festival took place this past March and was a solar-powered event!

Architects Chris Jacobs and Pierre Sartoux have put together different designs for incredibly cool urban farm concepts which would bring crops to skyscrapers. This is the true meaning of sustainable beauty.

Artist Joshua Harris has borrowed concepts from the plastic bags that American Beauty gave us (“Sometimes there’s so much beauty in the world I feel like I can’t take it, like my heart’s going to cave in.”) and turned it into real art. Harris has taken old plastic bags and transformed them into a bear. He then tied the bear to a subway grate and when air passes through, it looks like the bear is standing up on the sidewalk.
