Hola! Aquì mi pagina Facebook :
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.

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.
Rwanda’s Prime Minister, Dr Edouard Ngirente, officiated the unveiling of Nyandungu Eco-Park. The event was held on the first day of the Africa Protected Areas Congress. The unveiling was also attended by the Former Prime Minister of Ethiopia, Hailemariam Desalegn, Rwanda’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Dr Vincent Biruta and Rwanda’s Minister of Environment, Dr Jeanne d’Arc Mujawamariya.
At the event, students from the nearby Kigali Parents School had the opportunity to visit the park, join a guided tour to learn about the unique biodiversity on their doorstep, ride bikes along some of the eight kilometres of walking and biking trails, and become birdwatchers for the day.
The students also performed a song welcoming guests to Nyandungu and a delivered poem entitled “Sweet Breath,” which calls on humanity to stop environmental degradation and reconnect with nature.
Presenting the history of the park, Juliet Kabera, Director General of the Rwanda Environment Management Authority, shared how Nyandungu Eco-Park has been restored and how it will serve as a blueprint for wetland rehabilitation across the City of Kigali.

Tetra Tech, a global environmental consulting firm, rented a water quality monitoring system from us to keep an eye on the Avalon Bay dredging project. The goal was to clear out portions of New Jersey's harbors to help with shipping and recreation. A remote data logging system helped project managers keep constant watch on water quality at the sites.

This photo was taken after I dug up and found the first egg on the top of the sea turtle nest. Part of my job was to look for turtle crawls to indicate nesting behavior and then collect one egg from each nest for DNA sampling. On this day we dug for 2 hours before my co-workers thought it was a false crawl (no eggs laid). By the looks of the original crawl, though, I did not agree and kept digging. Eventually I found the eggs and it was a great feeling!

An important role played by the ocean is the storage and exchange of CO2 with the atmosphere, and its diffusion toward deeper layers. At high latitudes, dense waters sink, transferring carbon to the deep ocean. Warming of the ocean surface inhibits this sinking process and therefore reduces the efficiency of CO2 transport and storage. Furthermore, as water warms up, the solubility of CO2 declines, therefore less gas can be stored in the sea water.

I took this picture of sphagnum moss at a bog in Canada (Grand Manan Island). Sphagnum grows luxuriantly in many bogs, and a special adaptation in the leaf cells allows it to retain buoyancy in the watery environment. Each leaf cell is hollow, so that it fills with water and pockets of air, allowing it to float.

World Environment Day (WED) is a day that stimulates awareness of the environment and enhances political attention and public action. It is on 5 June. It was the day that United Nations Conference on the Human Environment began.
The United Nations Conference on the Human Environment was from 5-16 June 1972. It was established by the United Nations General Assembly in 1972. The first World Environment Day was on 1973. World Environment Day is hosted every year by a different city with a different theme and is commemorated with an international exposition in the week of 5 June. World Environment Day is in summer in the Northern Hemisphere and winter in the Southern Hemisphere.
Marine turtles have been used for eggs, meat, shell, oil, leather or other products for 7000 years. Modern times have introduced another way for society to profit from these species - to generate economic income as a tourism attraction. Sound turtle management relies on local communities, which – as economic incentive - should receive a fair share of the revenues. In many cases, the bulk of the revenues from the local level end up elsewhere, even outside the country – through international tour operators, for instance. Nearly half of the gross revenue from tourism expenditure in Costa Rica remains outside the country. Potential tortoiseshell exports from Cuba to Japan, would add up to 70% of revenue within the importing country.

The Southern African Development Community (SADC) consists of 15 countries, with 233 million inhabitants. Apart from Mauritius and the countries around South Africa in the Southern African Customs Union (SACU), the remaining countries exhibit low rates of electricity access and use of high quality fuels. Easy access to electricity and power increases the living standard and enables the development of additional services.
