On Tuesday January 29th over 40 environmentally-concerned New Yorkers gathered for the dinner launch of urbangreenwalk, an organization dedicated to educating and inspiring the public on what they can do to have a less harmful impact on the environment. The dinner, at LOI restaurant, was hosted by Jessica Mezzacappa and Ellie Libby . Urbangreenwalk, the brainchild of founder Steven McClure, will create a museum-style video installation in the windows of such high-end fashion retailers such as Ralph Lauren, Burberry and Marc Jacobs and will highlight local not-for-profits making a difference in Green initiatives such as urban farming, solar power, and cleaning our waterways. Amongst those enjoying the delicious Green and Greek treats from Chef Mary Loi, who has cooked at the white house and won many awards for her fare were: Steven McClure, Jessica Mezzacappa and John Zieman, Melinda Hackett, Cricket Burns, Leslie Stevens, Ellie and Jim Libby, Leslie Barrett , Don Evans, Gene Norden, Susan Singer, Michael Stern, and Joyce Green. Urbangreenwalk’s main event will start on Earth Day, April 20,2013 and be open to the public for the full week. For more information visit our website: http://www.urbangreenwalk.org
