More About Me

I'm passionate about

Conversion of the economy into a green economy; eco-design; organic food and wines, green building; saving landscapes.

An idea worth spreading

We have to tax pollutions, not work. The more you pollutes the more you pay, very simple. Organic food should then cost less than traditional.

    Aug 28 2012: Great idea David! I support it. Green building is "point n. 3" of the requirements of our project Greencommerce: http://www.greencommerce.it/en/requirements.html. We will discuss this issues on May 23/24th. 2013 in Turin, Italy during the IMAGE Workshop (http://www.workshop-image.it/), a national meeting to collect best practices and ideas for a sustainable development. We will also anticipate your idea to our readers in an article on Pam Warhurst's Incredible Edible, that should be published in the next days on our web magazine Greenews.info. Let's keep in touch. Cheers!
