An architecture firm in Glasgow has proposed a way to incorporate design and eco-function to help the city reduce its carbon footprint: Solar Lily Pads on the River Clyde New York City has joined in and already begun construction of waterfalls on the East River. Danish artist, Olafur Eliasson has designed the exhibit that is to open at the end of June and run until October, from 7am to 10pm daily. These waterfalls will harness the power of the water and the city will test to see how best this new form of energy can be used - all negated, of course, by the thousands of tickets that have been purchased on every tourist boat just to cruise by one of these exhibits. Look out Niagara Falls, we’re even handing out ‘Maid of the Mist’-esque ponchos! Still, a great new trend is happening in fashion, tourism and economy: sustainable and recyclable. - Jennifer
