“Active Hope is a practice.

Like tai chi or gardening, it is something we do rather than have. It is a process we can apply to any situation, and it involves three key steps. First, we take a clear view of reality; second, we identify what we hope for in terms of the direction we’d like things to move in or the values we’d like to see expressed; and third, we take steps to move ourselves or our situation in that direction. Since Active Hope doesn’t require our optimism, we can apply it even in areas where we feel hopeless. The guiding impetus is intention; we choose what we aim to bring about, act for, or express. Rather than weighing our chances and proceeding only when we feel hopeful, we focus on our intention and let it be our guide.”

DESIGN NAME: Briiv Pro

PRIMARY FUNCTION: Air Purifier

INSPIRATION: Air purifiers are usually bulky, ugly and loud and rely almost entirely on unsustainable production practices and materials. There is no reason why air purification cannot be sustainable in both form and function. That is why we dedicated ourselves to making Briiv Pro the most sustainable form of air purification available. Instead of waiting for the world to change, we decided to change it for the better.

Briiv Pro is a major leap forward for sustainably designed appliances by incorporating bioplastics, air quality sensors and AI-driven software to operate as efficiently and effectively as possible. By implementing cutting-edge technology, Briiv Pro delivers heightened convenience and improved air quality to those nearby, monitoring the air quality in your environment and automating itself to clean the air as needed, leaving you free to enjoy cleaner air and a healthier life.

Coconut Braised Chicken Breasts

Ingredients

For the marinade/sauce:

14 ounces light coconut milk, 1 can

3 tablespoons fresh lime juice

2 tablespoons freshly grated fresh ginger

3 tablespoons light brown sugar

1-2 teaspoons chili garlic sauce

1 teaspoon kosher salt

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

For the rub:

2 teaspoons brown sugar

1 teaspoon garlic salt

1 teaspoon sweet paprika

¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

For the chicken:

1 ½ pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, about 1 ½ pounds, 4 medium-size breasts

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

For the garnish:

mint, cilantro and/or basil leaves, for garnish

sesame seeds, for garnish

lime wedges, for garnish

Instructions 

For the prep:

Whisk together all of the marinade/sauce ingredients in a medium-size bowl. Add the chicken and refrigerate for 30-60 minutes.

While the chicken is marinating, combine all of the rub ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside.

To prepare the chicken:

After the chicken is marinated, drain well, reserving the marinade.

Place the drained chicken on a plate and sprinkle evenly on the smooth side with half of the rub.

In a large sauté pan heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. When the pan is hot, add the chicken, smooth side down. Chicken should sizzle a bit when it hits the oil. Sprinkle with the remaining rub. Cook for 4-5 minutes or until underside is a nice golden color. Remove chicken from the pan to a clean plate, golden side up.

Pour the reserved marinade into the pan. Stir well, scraping the bottom of the pan to loosen any brown bits (the fond). Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer and cook for 4-5 minutes until the sauce thickens a bit.

Return the chicken back to the pan.

Bring the sauce back to a simmer. Cover and simmer for another 4-6 minutes or until chicken is firm when lightly touched and the temperature is 160-165˚F.

Remove from heat.

For serving:

Serve with rice, noodles, mashed potatoes, etc. Garnish with fresh herbs (mint, cilantro and/or basil), sesame seeds and lime wedges, if desired.
