Some good green snippets have been in the news in and around the latest publication in the Southland. This BrandX seems like a poorly written giveaway but is really a savvy read on what’s happening in Los Angeles sustainable downtown and around the area in various venues and lifestyles.
While it seems fashionable to promote sustainable living, this latest issue features latest organic growing and art from recycled junk. The artist doing the work sources from recycled junk and has been trying for some time to assist other artists by sponsoring a space downtown.
BrandX must have a philosophy about naming itself a generic type, but inasmuch as it reads on the masthead that it is published by the Los Angeles Times, it’s heartening to know good type is coming from that house organ again.
The Los Angeles Times has redone its masthead to look remarkably like the New York Times or Washington Post, and let us imagine the writing will match up. Long Beach has instituted the BLBL, a program to convert turf yards into drought-tolerant landscapes. This is good news to know.
The articles about urban farming and organic garden nurseries, the EasyBloom review, the more down to earth writing appeals to those of us looking at the horizon and wishing it was more green ground. There is an article about creeks in Los Angeles that is a startling discovery.
