Idea translated: nº 3716 of ideator el_villeOn most occasions when we light a match, we only need it to be lit for a second (turn on a heater, light a candle, gas oven, etc), which means we throw the match away mostly unused. This is insignificant when considering a single match, but if we were to picture the millions of matches that end up in this way, the amount of wood we are squandering is unimaginable. Now, a match that can be lit on either end could be used twice, halving the amoun...

 Last November 2009 I was in London to receive an award "Green Apple Award for Environmental Best Practice" at the House of Commons. I was waiting at one of the tube stations to proceed towards East ham. In few minutes I was greeted by a huge air surge and it was so chill that i moved away from the platform.

 I find that if i want to paint landscapes or nature-orientated paintings, that if i make the canvas and frame myself, out of natural materials it enhances the idea and feeling of the painting. to do this I find slim, sturdy branches, and bind them into a rectangular frame using vine, i then either use recycled cloth from clothes, used paper or cardboard or old canvases.
