In case some of you have not heard of ORGO,here is a quick summary on the ORGO concept,visit www.orgo.sg for more info.
the menu, the entire concept will continue to evolve and change like a living organism. You can expect every visit to be a novel experience. |
the “organic” theme at Orgo, Tomoyuki has created a series of drinks at Orgo that avoids the use of any artificial flavorings and colorings, syrups and canned juices. The Orgo version of the Singapore Sling, for example, is made entirely from fresh ingredients with the exception of the base gin. |
On top of that, CTHH promises you a breathtaking view atop the Roof Terrace at the Esplanade.
Bring a friend or two and we look forward to seeing you there!
The Floralscape is one of nine oversized floral designs that will appear alongside California freeways in support of the ongoing launch of the 2010 Toyota Prius hybrid vehicle. Seven of the Floralscapes will be in the Los Angeles area and two in the San Francisco area. Developed by Greenroad Media, Inc., using the company’s patent-pending “Living Pixel” technology, design images are replicated using flowers of differing varieties and colors. "We are proud to be the inaugural City to unveil the first of seven Floralscapes along one of our busiest highways. The commute for Angelenos will now be brightened by floral murals that embody the City's progressive approach to solving environmental issues by merging beautification, sustainable design and reducing our carbon footprint," Mayor Villaraigosa said. "From the construction workers to the business team, this public-private partnership with Toyota and Greenroad Media has spurred local job creation across the board." Unlike Rose Parade floats, which are made with cut flowers, the 30’x60’ Toyota Prius “Harmony Floralscapes” are comprised entirely of living seasonal flowers. The flowers used in each Floralscape – about 20,000 blooms in total – are grown by local businesses in special modular “Eco-crates” made from recycled plastic. Several different designs have been developed, and the displays will be changed and updated several times during the next four months. “The Floralscapes represent a unique public-private cooperative effort,” said Tim Morrison, TMS marketing corporate manager. “Not only will the Floralscapes be seen by several hundred thousand motorists every day, permanent upgrades are also being made to the surrounding area, including landscape and irrigation improvements.” The Floralscapes are created from organic and reusable materials and are maintained using ecologically friendly techniques, including the utilization of non-potable water, solar electricity and ecologically responsible insect and fungi control. California-based businesses are contracted to install and maintain the Floralscapes. The non-profit Los Angeles Conservation Corps, which provides training, education and work experience to at-risk young adults and school-aged youth, will maintain the areas surrounding the Floralscapes. “The Floralscapes are an ideal communications concept for these economically challenging and environmentally conscious times,” said Edward St. Clair, president and founder of Greenroad Media. “Toyota is able to demonstrate its commitment to the environment to the benefit of state and local governments, local businesses and the entire community.” Since federal regulations require that the Floralscapes be non-commercial in nature, abstract images of the new Prius will appear in different settings, capturing the essence of its marketing campaign developed by Saatchi & Saatchi LA – “Harmony Between Man, Nature and Machine.” All of the images have been approved by California’s department of transportation, Caltrans. “Through this innovative partnership with Toyota, we are able to improve the look of freeway landscape, make necessary upgrades to aging or damaged irrigation systems, and save tax dollars,” said Raja Mitwasi, Caltrans Chief Deputy District Director.

Villaraigosa, officials from Caltrans, Toyota Motor Sales (TMS), U.S.A., Inc., and Greenroad Media, Inc.

CleanTech Happy Hour
Welcome to CleanTech Happy Hour!
"SAVING THE WORLD ONE BEER AT A TIME"
Whatever on earth is CleanTech Happy Hour (CTHH) and how did it begin? Let's us give you a quick overview but seeing is believing, so we say, come on down! bring a friend or two or three (you decide )and loads of name cards.
What is it: CTHH is a relaxed get-together of the Green and Clean Community of Singapore where you can exchange ideas and pretty talk about anything under the sun (literally) . Think of it as a business matching/networking session with great drinks minus the
Who is it for : Everyone and anyone working on, with a passion for or just an interest in clean technologies, renewable, carbon management, water, energy efficiency, etc. etc. Sun, fire , wind, earth, biogas…. ( you get the gist.)
Perhaps YOU’VE got a question about the Cleantech industry? Looking for a biogas technology provider ?Wondering what is the Kyoto Protocol? Or simply curious to know what is CleanTech all about and unwinding at the same time at fantastic venues!
When is it: Generally held on the first Wednesday of every month and since there is no set agenda, feel free to drop by anytime between 6:30 to 9:00 pm
How did it all begin:
CTHH was an initiative by Julian which spanned very two successful Cleantech Happy Hour events held at the Geek Terminal. When Julian relocated to
CTHH III JUNE 2009 , we stuck to the original format and venue and were very encouraged with the
CTHH IV July 2009 was really a test for us. Earlier on, we figured we might experiment a bit with the format, new locations, guest speakers, panels, etc. etc.
We changed the venue to ORGO (www.orgo.sg) located at the Roof Terrace at the Esplanade and kept our fingers crossed that people would show. They did and we breathe a sigh of relief.
CTHH V AUG 2009 will again take a different turn. A new Venue and a new program . Look out for news on this in your email or bookmark us for the latest on CTHH happenings !
If you have and ideas or suggestions , do drop us a line. We hope to grow the event together with you!
