"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)
Beijing's landfills are getting full fast! Reduce the "trash" you throw away by purchasing products with minimal packaging. Look for reusable, recyclable, and biodegrable items and remember to carry your reusable shopping bags!
Cyclists, film enthusiasts and those wanting to make the Beijing’s hot summer nights headed down to 2 Kolegas for a special screening at Bike-in at the Drive In. The rain held off and the warm night and comfy lounges provided the perfect setting to enjoy the collection of films curated by Electric Shadows, including the wonderful Les Triplettes de Belleville.
It was also a win for the environment with the majority of movie-goers arriving on bicycles. Thanks to the volunteers and all those who came down. Check out some photos from the event here.
Don’t forget you can catch the next Electric Shadows short films screening this Sunday, 1 August. See below for more details:
