GREEN QUOTE OF THE DAY

"Why are we being forced to choose between the economy and the environment? We tend to forget that without an environment we would not have an economy, as everything we consume and I mean everything comes from our environment."

~ Franke James (contemporary artist, photographer, writer)

为介绍需要支持的非营利项目,加入本地慈善倡导者和募捐人的行列,与来自51give.org捐赠门户网站和Brand Nv(北京首家社会责任构建的时尚精品店)的NANTHAN ZHANG进行简短的互动交流,略睹众多绿色北京的方法并参与特殊的“GREENING THE BEIGE GIVE AWAY”活动。

关于“GREENING THE BEIGE GIVE AWAY”:
GREENLADYC,北京的可爱生态理念创意集合“GtB”首任管理者、共同发起人即将离开中国归期尚不确定,为了联系GTB的同胞并将这一理念进一步深入全球。在中国—这个她离开自己国家之后居住七年的第二个家—充满她重多挚友的地方!GtB举办重大活动“交换GREENLADYC'的东西”赠送活动,只为说明一个共同问题:有人拥有“多余”的同时又有许多人需要:“多余”。(正如英文谚语所说:一个人的垃圾是另一个人的财富...或者像GREENLADYC的情况,一件艺术品)

享受超过两小时的不消费的生活方式(一种反对消费主义的生活方式,人们凭借构建在有限制的参与传统经济和尽可能少的浪费资源的生活策略替代消费主义),并且有机会目睹各种各样的在中国收集的奇怪东西。拿你喜欢的东西,但别留下剩下的!本次活动的主旨即在于 减少并再次利用 高价值和可再生的资源。因此每一个参加这需要遵守以下游戏规则:
1.拿你想要的;先到先得。
2.尊重秩序,记得排队。
3.你可以捐赠你不再想要的东西,但在每送出一件之前你必须领一件。

Join local charity advocates & fundraisers for a special introduction to non-profit projects in need of support. Enjoy short talks from guest speakers from the 51give.org donation portal and Nathan Zhang of Brand Nv -- Beijing's 1st socially responsible "re-newed" fashion boutique. Get a glimpse of all the many ways Beijing is going "green" and participate in a special "Greening the Beige Give Away" activity.

About the GtB Give Away:
GreenLadyC, co-founder & 1st director of Beijing's beloved eco-minded creative collective "GtB" is leaving China for an indefinite period, in hopes of connecting GtB people and concepts further across the world. And after making China her home away from home for the last 7 years -- she's accumulated a lot of material stuff! Taking this major move as an opportunity to address this common problem of having "too much" while so many people don't have enough, GtB will host a special "Swap GreenLadyC's Stuff" give-away activity. As the saying goes: "1 person's trash IS another person's treasure (or in GreenLadyC's case, an "art project").

Enjoy over 2 hours of freeganism and browse an eclectic mix of odd things collected in China. Take what you like, but don't leave the rest! The main point of this activity is to REDUCE & REUSE highly valuable & renewable - resources. Therefore everyone is asked to obey the following rules of play:

1. Take whatever you like; 1st come, 1st serve
2. Respect the queue
3. You may donate an item you no longer want; however you must take an item for each item donated
