In Belgium some farmers have a garden where people can harvest their own fruits and vegetables. It is cheap, fresh, and people get an idea where the product comes from. It is also an ideal trip for kids. Special is that they made a calender of where to get which fruit!
Danku (or: Thank you in Dutch) is a new and the first raw food restaurant in Belgium which has recently opened their doors. The menu only contains sprouted seeds and raw vegetables, ways of cooking are to marinate, mix, centrifuse, dry, sprout and ferment. Also cold “cooking” is possible with lemonjuice of vinegar. The philosophy is that all enzymes are kept in the food when you don’t cook it and ultimately this should be the recipe for a longer live expectancy.
The Fair Trade Foundation of the Dutch city Arnhem made two routes through the city. The routes do lead you to all the shops and restaurants who sell Fair Trade products.
The design of light switches and electric outlets in the house with a green touch will be noticed. The purpose of this design is to make people aware of their energy use and that they shoulden’t take it for granted.

MyFarm is an initiative of the UK National Trust where it is all about crowdmanagement. The farm of Wimpole Estate in Cambrigdeshire, which containts over 2.500 acres of land, is calling for 10,000 ‘online farmers’ to participate to sign up for £30 and provide this farmer with advise and to discuss other issues through blogs and videos. The online farmers don’t need any previous farmer experiences. Points of discussion will be; crops being grown, livestock being bred and general wider issues regarding the farm’s interaction with the environment.
The Acadia Tree Tower is a new solution for overpopulation. The building itself resembles of a birds nest and is designed by Petr Pospisil. The tree pilars that support the building are filled with office spaces and elevators. The Nest is used for condo’s, shopping malls and entertainement facilities. Energy and drinking water are gained from nature by solar panels and harvesting rainwater.
City planners in Abu Dhabi are developing Masdar to be an urban zone with sharp ecological goals, as it relies completely on solar and renewable energy. The city is designed by Foster & Partners.
This elegant 1limit faucet encourages water conservation by giving you less water to use. Even better, the faucet forces you to do it! The design relies on the simple principle of ‘what you see is what you get’. The faucet fills the attached glass tube with exactly one liter of water for washing hands, it needs to be turned off again before it refills. The brainchild of designers Yonggu Do, Dohyung Kim and Sewon Oh is a clever bit of stingy design.
