Plastics. Jon Oliver Does It Again.

Posted on 24 March 2021 by Namaara MacMoragh Posted in Virtual News

At Etopia we know that while there’s a lot we can do to reduce our personal footprint, there’s a lot that isn’t.

Controlling personal plastic consumption is. For example, we can choose to shop at food cooperative or other store that offers bulk-buying (which btw can be done correctly even during a pandemic) or buy and store items in glass (reusable and will save you tons of money).

What happens to the plastic already out there and the continued production of the stuff isn’t. And that’s where this terrific video from Last Week Tonight’s Jon Oliver is a must watch. You will, however, have to click the “Watch On YouTube” link to view it.

Torben Asp Celebrates Earth Day At KATJA’S

Posted on 21 April 2016 by Namaara MacMoragh Posted in Etopia Updates

“There is something magical about music, it’s indescribable power to instill and bring forth emotions, thoughts and memories. Torben Asp has harnessed that magic in his musical compositions to emphasize feelings and visions to his attentive audience.”

That’s what Summer Serra felt about Torben’s music. And we did too at his concert at KATJA’s today.

The night sky was filled with color and energy as Torben’s celebration of our Earth embraced us in the most beautiful music and awesome particle show.
