PCC Natural Markets Annual Meeting

For the fourth year in a row Pangeality Productions was tapped to film the PCC Annual Meeting. Over a beautiful spread of a meal, new PCC CEO Cate Hardy welcomed members, introduced herself and her vision for the future of PCC Natural Markets. Board Candidates gave short presentations, the PCC Cooks program was showcased (running since 1983), and the new soon to be opened PCC in Columbia City was featured, including insights from new Seward Park store owners to be Third Place Books.

Best Green Management Practices in the Auto Repair Industry Project – Pollution Prevention Resource Center NW

Once again I’m working with PPRC The Pollution Prevention Resource Center NW on a new project. We’re focussing on building multimedia training materials that highlight sustainable BMP Best Management Practices across the auto repair industry. The focus is largely on the disposal of chemicals but other general building maintenance and work materials curriculum as well. The multimedia training materials will be free online.

We kicked off the filming with an earth day shoot at Swedish Motors in West Seattle. On tour with us were representatives of various utilities responsible for large vehicle fleets. The shop heated it’s floors and facilities with an oil burning furnace onsite, solar power on the roofs and surprisingly in a large auto repair business only one trash can, with 6-8 recycling bins. A very impressive operation. They’ve even got landscaping around their parking lot that’s certified bird habitat. We’re due to shoot again in the facility where the Seattle Police Departments vehicle fleet is maintained.
