Ed Begley Interview, Voting Still On!

Hi friends,

It was a long shot, but I thought it would be great to do an interview with Ed Begley while in California, talking about what people can do to live more sustainably. Ed Begley, of course, is one of the leading environmentalists in Hollywood and is a well-known actor, currently starring in his TV reality show 'Living With Ed' on Planet Green. I contacted him to let him know about our cross-country eco-video project and asked for an interview, which he was kind enough to agree to! We're meeting at his home at the end of May for the interview and possibly for a tour of his famous green house! This is wonderful news and will surely be a highlight of our cross-country eco-video series.

The voting for the Green Mountain Coffee Roaster's Climate Change $200,000 grant is still open until this Saturday, so if you haven't voted yet please do. The grant project is for our friends at Sea Change Radio who we are collaborating with for our cross-country video project - if they win the grant they will use some of the grant to support our project.

This week we also added another interview while in San Francisco, Rev. Sally Bingham, who began the Interfaith Power & Light movement. The Interfaith Power and Light campaign is mobilizing a national religious response to global warming while promoting renewable energy, energy efficiency and conservation. There are Interfaith Power & Light chapters all over the country and their impact has been tremendous. We'll be talking with Rev. Bingham about what role religion has to play in promoting sustainable living.

Be well,
