This month's SV SPOTLIGHT is on Venice local Steven Williams of SELVA International. A man with insurmountable passion for the ocean and all land that leads to it, I am stoked to have had the chance to sit with him and learn more about how he gives back to the planet in his work, play, and activism.
With innovative and progressive minds making water from air, let us introduce Sky Water; a patented, proven technology which has been in use for over a decade with thousands of units sold worldwide, serving local communities and emergency relief efforts.
Architect, David Hertz, has integrated an air to water technology called 'Skysource' to produce up to 150 gallons of water per day. The water is then offered to the public of Venice Beach, CA for free as well as to a local NGO, Community Healing Gardens.
ECO FEATURE
Swing by the alley of Horizon Court in Venice and check out this magnificent desert oasis. While you're at it, fill up your reusable bottle with CA's finest atmospheric water coming straight from the crisp ocean air straight to you and indulge as you weave your way through the iconic neighborhood of Venice Beach.

Let's be the change and #ProtectWhatYouLove!
Bakeys is the India based creator of 100% natural, biodegradable, plant-based edible utensils.

This ensures safety not only for our own health, but for the health of the planet and its inhabitants. With a variety of sweet and savory flavors, who can resist this delicious mix of functionality with a purpose?!
REGEN VILLAGES
#VeniceBeach! Let's set the stage to adopt a closed-loop system in our community with neighborhood development expectations such as this!
A neighorhood delevopment design concept that is completely off-grid, self-sustaining, self-powering with renewable energy, closed-loop waste-to-resource system, grows its own food using unconventional methods ranging from aquaponics and permacultre to geothermal and biomass energy, and has all the bells and whistles that any earth-hugging human could only dream up? Well, luckily, this dream will come true!
ReGen Villages has partnered with Copenhagen-based architectural firm EFFEKT as the global architectural framework company and they plan to break ground in 2017!
