We Are Energy Creates New Alliances for Change in South Florida Friday October 16th, 2009 (Miami Beach, FL) Relive productions’ WE ARE ENERGY event ushered in a new era of awareness, willpower, and action in South Florida and married the energies of local businesses and proactive organizations, government, and over 500 local and international attendees for an evening of sustainably chic elegance, fashion, and cocktails. Relive co-founders Don Schneider of Relive Research & Development, Corp, Evaggelia Hatzimanolis of Morgan Stanley Smith Barney successfully created, and co-chaired the event to promote a sustainable future through conscious choices without sacrificing lifestyle and to raise funds to benefit the global projects of the Intergovernmental Renewable Energy Organization. To set the stage for a truly beautiful evening, Shore Club (1901 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach) and their beautiful Moroccan gardens and elegant pool cabanas were decorated with candles and green-hued lighting from Airwaves Production Group. The opening reception with superstar DJ Mark Leventhal included eco-art fashions by Luis Valenzuela of Green Art USA on models that collected EarthEra data for offsetting the carbon footprint of the event. Environmentally conscious pop music band "HERE II HERE" brought forth the crowd’s applause and elevated their consciousness with a stirring rendition of “Imagine” by John Lennon and beautiful delivery of their original track “Time For Change”. In support of new alliances without borders, The City of Miami Beach proclaimed their commitment to continuing progress towards a sustainable Miami Beach and honored the efforts of the Intergovernmental Renewable Energy Organization (IREO) and Relive productions with awards presented by Commissioner Jerry Libbin, Robson Mello, the Secretary General of IREO, issued a gift of thanks to Evaggelia Hatzimanolis and Don Schneider of Relive productions and to the City of Miami Beach. United Nations Ambassador Lorenzo from Dominican Republic also joined the group on stage and spoke in support of IREO. DJ LaTrice Perry then kicked up the music again and Brian Z. Guertin of Event Visions and Green Fashion Miami then presented the evening’s fashion shows with Colombian Designer Christiun Urquijo and his sustainable fashions from his Bodygear and Urquijo Couture lines. The models were stunning in the designs with the latest hairstyling and make-up by 1160 Hair. In a special Relive moment between the fashion shows, the talented Ari and Ruslan of Green Monkey put on an awe inspiring acro-yoga performance wearing designs by London-import Carrot Banana & Peach. Spectators enjoyed their Ketel One specialty martinis made with NuVerus and other organic ingredients served from decadent ice sculpture bars and the bidding wars for the extensive selection of silent auction items continued until 11 pm. With smiles on their faces and renewed energy for life, guests left the beautiful Shore Club property after viewing cutting-edge sustainable fashions and learning more about the environment; all while contributing to a cleaner and more energy efficient future by their support of the projects and mission of IREO.
