#098 June 2017/Food

Mistral, located in the King of Prussia Mall, puts two farm-to-table veterans to the test

Sustainability in the Suburbs? by Danielle Corcione Mistral, pronounced MEE-strall, opened its doors at the King of Prussia Mall on March 1.

🎶 Attention: talented DU students - there is a 🎶 Attention: talented DU students - there is a 20k prize pool up for grabs! Participants in Anthems for the Anthropocene are challenged to create, perform, and record an original song that conveys a message about climate change to inspire and empower listeners!! 🎶 
 
More info: Climate change has arrived and we are living through this crisis now. We feel its impacts in our health, our environment, our infrastructure, and our economy. It has implications for just about every facet of our daily lives. A warming climate means more summer heat, rising sea levels, more extreme weather, and threats to human, animal, and plant communities around the world. The impacts of climate change are not distributed equally: Black and brown communities and the Global South bear the heaviest burdens even as their economies contribute far fewer greenhouse gas emissions per capita compared to the Global North.

We need to muster all of our available tools to address this crisis: science, engineering, policy, diplomacy, communication, and, not least of all, artistic expression.

We have learned that simply knowing climate change is accelerating is not enough to spur effective action, and that we must find ways to convey the urgency of climate action that reach our families, friends, and neighbors on a deeply personal level. Music has long been a way of inspiring reflection, action, and change. Can it generate climate action? We think it can.

ABOUT THE CONTEST

Participants in Anthems for the Anthropocene are challenged to create, perform, and record an original song that conveys a message about climate change to inspire and empower listeners. The strongest entries will feature both lyrics and musical composition that are creative, compelling, and entertaining. Participating bands and solo performers will be able to take advantage of skills workshops and drop-in guidance sessions on climate content during the span of the contest.

🌟 The husband-and-wife founders and owners of U 🌟 The husband-and-wife founders and owners of Urban Essence, Theresa P. Minor and Timothy L. Minor, know firsthand how spa and body care treatments can rejuvenate the skin and the soul. In 2003 Theresa was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. An IT professional, Theresa didn’t know if she was going to be able to continue working in that field — or if the crippling disease would rob her of her ability to enjoy everyday pleasures. At that time, there was one place where she could seek refuge. 🌟 

“I always enjoyed going to get my hair done and those other types of services,” Theresa explains.

Newly focused on her health, Theresa realized that the products used in spa and salon treatments often contain petroleum-based chemicals. Leaning on her analytical background, she began researching the biology, chemistry and even technology used to create these products and realized that there was a more holistic and natural approach. Many of the products she wanted didn’t exist, however, so she convinced her husband, Timothy, to do the next best thing — start their own salon and spa business.
