Gisele Bündchen Joins Paul Hawken In Promoting 'Drawdown' Book, 100 Solutions To Global Warning
Supermodel Gisele Bündchen covers the June/July issue of Vogue Paris, but talking fashion is not on her mind just now. Gisele is using her post-runway-retirement time to increase her commitment to Planet Earth, a long-standing passion for the world's top model.
Bündchen is using her global platform as an environmental advocate, articulate voice on deforestation in the Amazon, and role as a United Nations goodwill ambassador to promote environmentalist Paul Hawken's latest book, 'Drawdown.'
The 'Drawndown' website says that Hawken's new book:
". . . maps, measures, models, and describes the 100 most substantive solutions to global warming. For each solution, we describe its history, the carbon impact it provides, the relative cost and savings, the path to adoption, and how it works. The goal of the research that informs 'Drawdown' is to determine if we can reverse the buildup of atmospheric carbon within thirty years. All solutions modeled are already in place, well understood, analyzed based on peer-reviewed science, and are expanding around the world."

Robin Wright Is Lensed By Victor Demarchelier In 'Laid Bare' For The Edit May 18, 2017
'House of Cards' actor Robin Wright covers the May 18th issue of The Edit, ready to talk about her new blockbuster 'Wonder Woman' and the fifth season of being America's First Lady Claire Underwood.
The 51-year-old actor is interviewed with Garage singer Shirley Manson, and Wright explains that she had a complete body transformation while preparing to play the role of General Antiope in the 'Wonder Woman' movie.
Wright reveals how she altered her training regime and diet in order to portray her fierce warrior character. "We would do horse riding for an hour, then drive from the stable to the studio and do weight training for an hour -- heavy weights and short reps to build size quickly," she explains. "We were trying to do 2-3,000 calories a day: raw oats in smoothies with avocado, whole milk and weight-gain powder, three times a day.” The younger women worked much harder.

Marique Schimmel Fronts 'Safari Deluxe' Lensed By Laura Sciacove Nciacovelli for Marie Claire Italy's May 2017 'Safari Deluxe'.
Safari looks in May magazines are standard fare -- except for Maria Grazia Chiuri presenting her first cruise collection for Christian Dior on May 11 at the Upper Los Virgenes Canyon Open Space Preserve in Calabasas, Ca. Continuing her design inspiration inspired by strong women worldwide, Chiuri turned to stellar American artist Georgia O'Keeffe, along with the writings of feminist shamanic author Vicki Noble. The LATimes writes:
Although all of the pieces bearing the Lascaux-inspired imagery caught the eye, the most memorable were the full skirts, sleeveless dresses and blazers that rendered the drawings of oxen, deer and horses in a silk jacquard that had a dusty golden cast to it.
AOC covered the opening of France's new exhibition center Lascaux 4, a full-size replica of the ancient cave paintings in the Dordogne region of France.
Nicolas St-Cyr, artistic decorator of Lascaux-4, officially known as the International Centre for Cave Paintings, is one of the few to have visited the real Lascaux. “It’s very special. You have the feeling you are in the presence of man 22,000 years ago when you see the paintings. These were talented artists, working by the light of animal oil lamps, and it’s like they were done yesterday. I was trembling when I came out.”
Virtually all of the Lascaux paintings are of animals, and 'no' there are no woolly mammoths portrayed in the caves. But the Rouffignac cave nearby, with paintings from the same time period, is best known for the large number of woolly mammoths on the walls.
