Renée Loux is a green marvel. If you hit the glorious sugar-sand beaches of south Kihei, on Maui, you’re not far from the solar-powered beach house she shares with Shep Gordon, who’s a marvel of a different sort (long-time manager of Alice Cooper, friend to the Dalai Lama, et al.). Renée was the raw chef on actor (and fellow eco-hero) Woody Harrelson’s veggie-powered bus in the 2003 feature documentary Go Further. She used to be chef/owner of an acclaimed raw restaurant on Maui’s north shore, and she still consults with restaurants and spas on how to go green. These days her main gigs are hosting “It’s Easy Being Green” on the Fine Living Channel and writing painstakingly researched, highly engaging books. Her latest is Easy Green Living (Rodale Press), which she calls “the ultimate, elemental guide to how to go green and stay sane.” We’re also big fans of The Balanced Plate, also from Rodale, a cookbook that’s as much about a green and healthy lifestyle as it is great recipes. Both are highly recommended. And check out her website, which is jam-packed with info.
This post is a sneak preview of Green Traveler Guides’ Hawaii, our e-guide to all things green in the Aloha State.
