Image Craft's ICON Themed Environments division created this new suite of office furniture, custom designed for our recently expanded Colorado office, now located in Centennial.
Shown here in various stages of production are a reception desk, media wall with podium, conference room table, storage and display credenzas, and more! The furnishings, primarily composed of shop ply and MDF, feature a zebra wood laminate with folkstone gray and matte black laminate work surfaces.
This project was produced entirely in-house in our Phoenix headquarters, from design to fabrication, and ultimately, through on-site installation. Backlit lettering and graphics are also part of the overall concept, and will be the final addition. We'll add more photos here as the project progresses.

California dams are constantly being decommissioned for various reasons. Who is responsible for destroying the hard work Californian's have contributed to the watershed? Come along with us for a California Sun Outdoor Adventure as we explore why the dams are being removed and who is responsible, and worst yet, who is paying for it.
An agreement was reached regarding the removal of Copco 1, Copco 2, Iron Gate Dam and the J.C. Boyle Dam all along the Klamath River. Has Klamath River Dam been removed? Not yet and we are here to create a movement to stop the removal of our dams in order to preserve the current habitats and benefits of our dams.
We challenge the narrative that the removal of the dams will be worth the money and effort in terms of ecological conservation. We reject the actions and question the agenda of those parties under agreement.
On Sunday 9 September three Mosman households gave a tour of their homes to celebrate Sustainable House Day. The tour, which was part of Council’s Living Environment Series, was a huge success with participants having the opportunity to learn about solar panels, water harvesting, composting, sustainable building materials, edible gardens and more.
The tour highlighted how easy it is to make your home more sustainable. Whether you live in a unit, townhouse or free standing dwelling there is always something you can do to reduce your ecological footprint.
The homes on the tour included a Federation period residence in the Orlando Conservation Area, a free standing home built in 1976 and a strata title unit in the heart of Mosman. Although all the homes were very different, the common theme was that they had all been retrofitted to become more sustainable.
Participants were amazed at the amount of food that can be grown in a small backyard, the amount of money that can be saved through energy efficiency and the creative ways to capture water for re-use. The tour was part of a national event which sees hundreds of sustainable homes open each year.
It was an extremely inspirational day with participants going home with new ideas and enthusiasm to make their own homes and lives more sustainable.

Court rules Otapan should not have left NL
Outgoing environment minister Pieter van Geel should never have given the asbestos-laden ship Otapan a permit to leave Dutch waters, the Council of State ruled on Wednesday. The Dutch government wanted the Otapan - moored in Amsterdam since 1999 - to be demolished in Turkey last year because it was too expensive to carry out the job at home.
However, the Turkish authorities refused to accept the ship when it emerged that it contained far more asbestos than registered on the export licence. The licence said the ship was carrying one tonne of asbestos while the true figure was twice revised upwards to 77 tonnes.
‘We are very pleased with this signal from the Council of State. The Netherlands may not export its environmental problems,’ Greenpeace Nederland director Liesbeth van Tongeren said. Greenpeace went to court to appeal against the granting of the original export licence. It claimed the true amount of asbestos on board the ship was contained in an environment ministry report in 2002.
The Otapan, currently back in Amsterdam, is to be taken to a breaker’s yard in Rotterdam on Friday.
The Otapan is the second ship involving the Netherlands to hit international headlines recently. The Dutch government is one of a number of parties being held responsible for allowing the tanker Probo Koala to leave Dutch waters, despite fears it was carrying toxic waste.
The Women’s March is a global demonstration on behalf of women, minorities, the disabled, education, healthcare, the environment and against the actions, statements, and policies of Republican President Donald Trump and his government.

Seabirds vary greatly in lifestyle, behavior and physiology, they often exhibit striking convergent evolution, blah, blah, blah... If you are a start-up photographer, you can't miss these kinds of shots. I got this at 126 mm focal length and F-stop (Aperture) being stabilized at f/8. The image has also been rendered on saturation a bit.
Employees supported a special Earth Month celebration with the Royal Botanical Gardens, Kew. Around 100 volunteers supported this important environmental organisation through either gardening with the horticulture team, or lantern making for their award-winning winter lantern trails. The activities ended with a lunch and talk from Kew Director of Science, Alex Antonelli on biodiversity.
Yesterday, I signed a petition to help save the environment (or something like that) and stated some ways to do so. The least I could do was to buy some seedlings, do some volunteer work, and promote their Facebook page to any of my social networking sites. Well, this is the promoting -their-page part.

“The Buhisan Watershed and Forest Reserve supplies water to the Buhisan Dam, which is the only source of surface water for MCWD. At present, some industries and about 2,500 households in Metro Cebu depend on the Buhisan Dam for water. Cebu is ground water dependent. What if time comes when all the ground water becomes salty? Where else can we get safe and clean water? Through the Buhisan Dam, there is hope for Cebu. Be with us in helping save Buhisan Dam by simply liking our page” -http://www.facebook.com/OpAgua

This week, Mike reports from a burial ground in Cambridge, England. He speaks to Dr Aubrey de Grey about his research on prolonging life and a group of elderly people about whether they would like to live longer. Also, pupils from the Charter School in South East London tell Mike what they would like the programme to be about next week.
