Clean water for all no longer a pipe dream
Clean water for all no longer a pipe dream
AMSTERDAM – JointhePipe.org has a vision: to bring clean drinking water to everyone around the world who needs its. Sound familiar? Maybe; but these guys are going about it differently.
JointhePipe.org is the first social community of tap water drinkers, and the idea behind it is so simple we’re amazed no one thought of it sooner.

Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution
Jamie Oliver transforming America’s diet
NEW YORK - Jamie Oliver successfully campaigned for healthier school meals in the United Kingdom. Now he’s in the US to try and do the same. The challenge is bigger than anything else he’s faced before. The show is called “Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution“. His first stop is the US city of Huntington in West Virginia - a place with the unenvious title of unhealthiest city in the US (and that’s saying something…!).

Wholefoods heaven!
Wholefoods heaven!
WASHINGTON DC - The first thing I did when we arrived in Washington DC to visit the DC Environmental Film Festival was look up the nearest Wholefoods supermarket. Wholefoods is a true food paradise and the owners care about our planet. You’ll find the highest quality, least processed, organic food there. Before you know it you’ll have spent hours browsing aisles full of temptingly lush cakes, cheeses, salads, fresh bread, coffee, etcetera….

Retail therapy, multiplied
AMSTERDAM – A shirt retailer that doubles as a coffee shop; a hair salon that sells boutique tea; a creative agency that’s also a wine bar. In this fast-paced world where there never seem to be enough hours in the day, no time-saving combination is too crazy. A new shop has now taken multitasking to the next level by offering furniture, fashion and food under one roof.
