Green Screen

A couple of environmentalists/actors have teamed up for a new movie, which opens this week. Rachel McAdams, whose Green is Sexy site has already been discussed on this blog, and Harrison Ford, who has worked with Conservation International and EarthShare, are starring with Diane Keaton in Morning Glory.

The film follows the experiences of a young television producer as she tries to breathe new life into a failing morning show.

If you are looking for a movie to see, this might be a good one. It's not about the environment, but McAdams and Ford have championed environmental causes, and it looks funny.

You can watch a preview at Apple iTunes Trailers.

Rachel McAdams Thinks Green is Sexy

People who know me have received this information before, but I decided to post it here as well.

Actress Rachel McAdams (from The Notebook, Wedding Crashers, State of Play, and The Time Traveler's Wife) has teamed up with two of her friends to develop a Web site called Green is Sexy. Rather than asking for your money or political action, this site focuses on providing tips for making your daily lives more environmentally friendly. For instance, want to make your hot water heater more efficient? Try out an insulation blanket.

The site is essentially a blog, consisting of daily posts on various green tips, so check in when you can to find out what's new. Additionally, you can search for topics that have already been covered if you are looking for something in particular. You might not find all of the tips useful, but the site has some good information. Perhaps it can answer some of your questions or give you some ideas for being more efficient or having less of a negative impact on the planet.
