What do Typhoon, The Dimes, Loveness Wesa and the Bantus, Boy and Bean and Y La Bamba have in common? You can see them all for free when you check out Sundown at Ecotrust, Thursdays this summer. Ecotrust’s mission is to inspire fresh thinking that creates economic opportunity, social equity and environmental well-being.The event aims to bring like-minded, forward thinkers (who appreciate free valet bike parking) together to discuss sustainability and living responsibly and enjoy some of the best music Stumptown has to offer. Just head down every Thursday (starting tomorrow) until July 28th to the Natural Capital Center (721 NW Ninth Ave.) and get your dose of living deliberately and locally. Not only will there be booths and representatives from the "think tanks" and "do tanks," to discuss each weeks theme; the premiere week looks at water use, other weeks will explore food, energy and forestry. – Shelley Gaske
