This project was completed in the period of two weeks in New York’s Central Park with the blooming of the 7,503 fabric panels on February 12, 2005. The gates and fabric panels could be seen from far away through the leafless branches of the trees (christojeanneclaude.net). The main purpose behind this artwork was to create a meaningful public art and how art responds to and impacts our relationship with the built environment (khanacademy.org). Through this work, fresh perspectives about environment, socio-political, and aesthetic characteristics of life are revelaed (home.nwciowa.edu). Environmental artworks of Christo and Jeanne Claude leave a lasting memory on every aspect of life

II. Listener Relevance- The world we live in is slowly being torn down by water pollution, air pollution, land pollution. Surprisingly, a very simple thing such as recycling helps reduce all of these.

Detective’s Note: Howard Ashleman, Reno Parks and Miranda Lovette the girlfriend of Reno went to CFVMC at approximately 3:00 a.m. Reno Parks was treated for a deep laceration to his hand. Reno Parks and Raymond Hunt both refused to speak with Law Enforcement. Howard’s cellphone records indicated his phone was in the area of Murphy road from approximately 8:24 p.m. until 12:00 a.m.

As The World Burns: 50 Simple Things You Can Do To Stay In Denial, by Derrick Jensen and Stephanie McMillan, is a graphic novel about the state of our environment. They use cartoons and abundant sarcasm to convey the message that the attempts people are making to save the environment are not enough to do any real good. Their message challenges both those of Edward O. Wilson and the University of Connecticut in that Jensen and McMillan’s ideas are much more radical and suggest that the ideas posed by Wilson and UConn, such as the importance of recycling and sustainability efforts, are ineffective at saving the environment. We must resolve the challenges posed by Jensen and McMillan so that all of the ideas put forth in the sources may work together rather than against each other. In order to do this we must accept that some of the ideas given by Jensen and McMillan may be too extreme to do any real good and that the ideas suggested by Wilson and UConn, though slightly ineffective, are nonetheless important steps in saving the environment. Taken alone, none of their ideas will save the environment; instead it is necessary to combine the ideas of Wilson, UConn, and Jensen and McMillan in order to create a more realistic plan to save the planet.

Michelle Lougee is a very famous environmental artist, sculptor, and ceramist. She is a member of the Boston Sculptors Gallery, and her artwork has been shown in many New England museum exhibits. She also teaches sculpture, ceramics, pottery, and drawing to adults and children at various local museums. She holds an M.F.A and a B.F.A. from Boston University and lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Her work focuses on the delicate balance between nature versus human society and technology. The contrast of this relationship is explored in both materials and subject matter. The combination of the two factions produce mysterious yet familiar forms. Michelle Lougee strives to replicate the animated quality that all living things possess. She believes that her job as an environmental artist is “to capture that beauty in my work while instilling a message into it.” Michelle Lougee uses a wide variety of naturally found materials from the environment. These materials are very banal. They include clay, papyrus, paper, cloth, plastic, post-consumer grocery bags, and plastic bags. Michelle Lougee’s signature material is the plastic bags as they are symbolic of the harmfulness brought to our environment. You can see her thorough incorporation of plastic bags in her Gyre

INTRODUCTION: The act of recycling has been and is very influential around the world for the last decade, where global warming is not easily seen on news headline; strongly encouraged for all people, especially strongly advised to recycle in the United States. Recycling plastic and other reusable materials are a process that takes decades to have at least half of the world's population to get involved; however Nevada started to show advances to recycling, with investments from industries, universities or schools, and individuals. Hotels on the Las Vegas Strip and diverse population of students have promoted recycling exceedingly, which encouraged and still is encouraging out-of-state recycling industries to take a step further in recycling

As I will be working in conjunction with several other students—each of us examining some aspect of Holistic Sustainability—we will work together to simultaneously answer the broader question of what a new Center for Sustainability at Grinnell College should look like. With my area of research, I hope to identify whether the Center should be a new or renovated

How will I help our environment? I will be partnering up with Karlie Ramirez, we have decided on the 21st of October to head up to Giant Rock, located in Lucerne Valley. Over the years mankind has polluted our air drastically, consequently we throw trash on the ground and in our oceans. At worst is air pollution. Exhaust fumes, Radiation spill or nuclear accidents It creates an adverse effect on the overall environment. We put fumes and gases in our air on a daily base and How does this affect our environment? As some of us have seen It kills wildlife and is currently putting a hole in our Ozone Layer. Karlie and I will be heading to pick up trash, approximately for about 5 hours. Before we can move forward, there are a few steps we will need to complete before the 23rd of September. Moving Forward to our first step, will need to speak to our parent about purchasing a few items. Such as, trash bags, gloves and water. Moving on to our Second step, discussing where we will be disposing of all trash we pick up. When you make a point of doing everything you can to help your environment by recycling, your actions make you part of the solution rather than part of the problem. Our third step, talk to our parents about transportation and Location in Giant Rock. After these steps, Karlie and I will be ready to help our earth function and breathe, on the 21st of October. (Here we come Giant Rock!) Everyday items such as soda cans and plastic bottles can be deadly for unsuspecting wildlife.

Sustainability is a broad and increasingly familiar topic in our culture. Sustainable farm-to-fork restaurants have sprung up all over the United States, urban gardening has become a popular habit for those living in the city, and numerous stores have recycling centers and ‘green’ products. What do these things have in common? Each example mentioned above helps resources last for future generations. Farm-to-fork restaurants support local agriculture, which supports dozens of plants growing and purifying the air and our environment. They also minimize fossil fuels released into the air from traveling long distances. Urban gardens help counteract city pollution. Recycling centers cut the amount of waste in landfills, and green products last longer

An experience that has greatly influenced my understanding of the world has been my participation in Florida Atlantic University’s Pine Jog Fellowship. The Pine Jog Fellowship is a three-semester program that focuses on environmental improvement and education. In the Pine Jog Fellowship I have had the opportunity to develop my own environmental service projects that would benefit my community. During one semester of my fellowship, I coordinated beach clean-ups for Lake Worth Beach. I recruited over sixty people and collectively, we recycled and threw away over one hundred pounds of trash off of Lake Worth Beach. I also spoke to local fishermen and educated them on the dangers of throwing monofilament fishing line into the ocean. During the

By 2032, DC will meet it's goal of becoming zero-waste. Numerous sustainability efforts at both the business and city level are already underway. We only have one word of advice—activate.

In Cenla's community there are limited resources that encourage recycling. At Louisiana State University at Alexandria there is often an overflow of recyclable goods that can be salvaged and re-purposed to benefit our community. We propose an affordable campus project, Recycle Rally, that networks students, teachers, and those in the community through volunteer recycle days and projects that use recycled materials as an art medium. Professors are encouraged to give assignments and extra credit to motivate students to volunteer for work days, as well as, participate themselves. After completing refurbished art projects, students will need support from the community to purchase recycled art, in order to offset the cost for bins, labor, and transportation. The benefits of implementing the program inspire students to care, network, and build within their community,

All the shirts and posters Bonnaroo sells are all made out of organic cotton as well as hemp, and no trees are used at all. Even the concession stand items, toilet paper in the porta potties, and administrative paper they use is made from recycled goods. They do this to not only promote going green, but it is also a reminder to everyone for what they stand for and that’s not just outstanding music. Some of the waste management things the festival has implemented are its composting program as well as having WastAway handle and “recycle 250 tons of garbage”. The festivals composting program has “diverted approximately ten percent of the event’s total waste since its inception” and the festival organizers “expect to divert of 60 percent of this waste from landfills.”. This is something so simple they do, but yet it still has a massive impact on the environment because it’s not going into a landfill. With WastAways, they will take all of the 250 tons and use it to construct things that will be built for Bonnaroo, like benches and materials they can put to use in other ways. With these recycled benches, they will be able to show the festival-goers were all the recycled material goes and how it benefits making Bonnaroo better. Bonnaroo has also decided to convert to “over 250,000 gallons of biodiesel fuel (B100) to replace diesel for the non-stage generators” and lower their carbon footprint once again. Doing this will not only lower emissions the festival puts out but also helps the festival start to make the transition to smarter and more environmentally friendly options. All of these simple programs they have do not just show they are willing to do what’s

This report was contracted by Western University to reduce landfill disposal of a specific end-product on campus. As a signatory of the Council of Ontario Universities’ Formal Declaration of Commitment to Environmental Sustainability, Western University is dedicated to sustainability [1]. Through various sustainability programs, Western currently diverts approximately 50% of the total waste generated on campus from the landfill [2].

recycling campaign. The only way to do that is to help make recycling appeal to more of the vast student population that currently attends our University. How might this be done? The University already places a recycling bin in every dorm room around the campus; anything more would exceed the current funding for the recycling project. Perhaps the institution of a recycling center at the Russell House could cause the impulse to become a habit. But, that would take too much money--with the salaries of workers and the annexing of what would amount to a new wing of the building--to consider for too long. Another solution could be to have the students elect a "recycling committee" to evaluate the problem and decide on the appropriate solution. However, I feel that with the current lull in our recycling campaign, even that would be ineffective. As an altrenative to these two solutions I propose that we, as students and faculty united, institute a plan that is so simple it is already in place in many of the high schools around the state. I propose a system of rewards.
