The GOODS from Campagnolo Roma

Vancouver, BC | Restauranteurs Tom Doughty and Robert Belcham and Executive Chef Ted Anderson have been working to transform their entire restaurant family (Campagnolo Restaurant, Fat Dragon Bar-B-Q and Campagnolo ROMA) into environmentally friendly, zero waste businesses (the goal of a zero waste business is to eliminate landfill garbage which creates harmful greenhouse gases). Campagnolo ROMA is the first of the three restaurants to complete the transition and has been enrolled in the Recycle – Now! Total Solution program since opening day. Recycle-Now! is assisting Campagnolo ROMA to create zero waste. All waste products created by the restaurant are recycled for reuse. All paper, cardboard, soft and hard plastics, glass and plastic containers are recycled; even food is recycled through composting and local soil production.

Reviews

“The Hired Belly is always impressed when a restaurant hits the ground running. That’s the case with Campagnolo Roma.” – Tim Pawsey, The Vancouver Courier.

“Campagnolo Roma cuts to the chase: the food.” – Mia Stainsby, The Vancouver Sun.

Check out Shelter, an excellent short film on Lloyd Kahn – a societal refugee, home guru and likely master of the freakin’ universe…

Lloyd Kahn claims that shelter is more than a roof over your head. As the author and publisher of over a dozen books on home construction, Lloyd has been grappling with the concept of home, physically and psychically, for over five decades. Situated in the financial and housing crisis, this film profiles Lloyd’s ideas on do-it-yourself construction and sustainability.

Watch it…

It’s just so…yesterday. Try living – like Rishi Sowa does- on an island made of plastic bottles.

From 1998 to 2005, Rishi Sowa hand-built and lived on the first Spiral Island, which floated on over 300,000 recycled bottles. It was destroyed by Hurricane Emily in 2005. Rishi has now built an even better island at Isla Mujeres, Mexico, in a lagoon which offers shelter from bad weather. Rishi will continue to make improvements to the Island, so it will always be a eco-work-of-art in progress…

I suppose it’s easier when you’re a little bonkers and quick to be distracted by “on-usual eeensectz”…

A conservation advocacy group from Santa Monica made this fantastic short film detailing how a “wild” plastic bag “migrates” to the Great Pacific Garbage Patch in the middle of the ocean. That it’s narrated by Academy Award-winning actor Jeremy Irons makes it doubly awesome. If you watch just one thing today, this should be it.

PS. Beware the Yorkie!

Surely this electric-powered Tesla sports car with its eco-smug personalised license plate is on its way to LAX for a private jet joyride (via The Daily What).
