I like the natural feel of green buildings incorporating bamboo and slate. I like to eat food that is seasonal and organic with a fish entrée that is environmentally responsible. As I enjoy my meal, I like to sit amongst Lime Geranium, Vanilla Grass, Bronze Fennel, Italian Oregano, Spice Islands Rosemary, Berggarten Garden Sage, Winter Savory, Thyme, and a Curry Plant. I especially like it when the herbs are growing organically under SolarOasis LEDs. If you think I live in a dream world... The wondrous place exists at the Palms Place Hotel and Spa in Vegas, overlooking a beautiful view of the mountains and the Vegas strip. “Simon Restaurant and Lounge”, is a collaboration between Kerry Simon, Elizabeth Blau, and George Maloof- three of the most illustrious names in Vegas. The menu and atmosphere for this celebrity hot spot is based on the concept of sustainability and the earth- friendly focal point is a living wall of herbs. What better way is there to show that you care for the environment then bringing a bit of it to work and literally, caring for it? There is a consumer driven change bringing the garden into an increasing number of unexpected places. A change that is driven dollars that are spent each year by people who want to support businesses that
energy, energy efficiency, organics, pollution prevention, water conservation, and recycling. What is perceived as the most “green” by this growing, hard-to-define market? Plants are, of course. I don’t want to suggest that Kerry Simon, Elizabeth Blau, and George Maloof would have conspired to use their plants as bait for the “green” dollar. There are a number of other good reasons that may have influenced their decision to incorporate the herb wall into the workday. Science has taught us that what we already suspected is true- people who spend time with plants are happier and healthier. Plants provide fresh air, help eliminate air pollutants, increase positive feelings, and reduce stress. This connection to nature carries over to the business world with reduced absenteeism, faster recovery from mental fatigue, and an improved (more expensive looking) image that makes people want to stay a bit longer. Plants act as air conditioning in the summer and humidifiers in the winter. All of this translates as increased profits and reduced expenses- enough to give any business a green thumb. -AL *********************************************************************************************** Plants, Light, and LEDs part 12 Intelligent product design is safe, versatile, and scalable. LED products aren't constrained by the limitations of standard "glass bulb" lighting designs. Because of this, LED grow lighting designs must carefully balance the parameters of the target operating environment., the various ways in which the product may be used, as well as any special requirements of the customer, in order to maximize the potential of the technology. The intelligent design of SolarOasis grow lighting products is the clear choice in LED grow lighting for commercial growers: Low Voltage= Greenhouse Safety- Concerns for greenhouse worker safety lead greenhouse operations to favor low voltage devices for their growing operations. SolarOasis low voltage supplemental grow lighting is the safer alternative to standard, high voltage grow lighting. Alternative Power Ready- With the growing availability of small scale alternative power generators, such as solar and wind power, commercial growers have more options than ever before to reduce or eliminate the need for outside power. SolarOasis grow lighting products are a perfect match for all kinds of alternative power generators. Sleek Bar Design Reduces Crop Shading- If the supplemental grow lighting in your greenhouse is blocking more light than it delivers, there's no point in using it. To be as efficient as possible, supplemental greenhouse grow lighting should block as little sunlight as possible. The sleek bar design of SolarOasis grow lighting products ensures our grow lighting delivers maximum supplemental lighting while minimizing crop shading. --CEO SolarOasis **************************************************************** Copyright 2009 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED LED Grow Master Global, LLC |
