| Source: Seventh Generation
BURLINGTON, VT--(Marketwire - April 16, 2009) - Finally, help arrives to separate "green"
myth from fact with the help of Seventh Generation and the Fine Living
Network. On April 22 -- Earth Day 2009 -- join environmental activist,
advocate, and Seventh Generation President Jeffrey Hollender as he
separates myth from reality when it comes to the conventional wisdom of
green living. "Big Green Lies" airs at 9PM ET/PT, on FLN.
From the corridors of power to the halls of your home, follow the crew of
BIG GREEN LIES as they perform mad science, track down the partisan
experts, expert partisans, average citizens, rabid researchers, and other
oracles who think they've got the ecological answers you're seeking. Tune
in as host and Seventh Generation CEO Jeffrey Hollender dispatches his team
of off-kilter operatives to locations around an overheated globe to
separate ecological facts from fiction, addressing the issues that no one's
had the chutzpah to take on until now. Take a sneak peak at some of our
attitudes to a few myths (yes, yours and mine!) at
http://www.biggreenlies.com.
"As the name implies, 'Big Green Lies' aims to reveal the falsehoods behind
prevalent green myths and settle long-standing debates," said Jeffrey
Hollender. "Our gang of green pundits will conduct person-on-the-street
interviews, talk to experts and partisans, and concoct experiments that aim
to better inform people about the facts of green living while uncovering
the lies. We hope you find the show informative, funny, and clever, but
never mean-spirited. We'll gauge the health, taste, and cost effects of
going organic. We'll settle the debate over cloth vs. disposable diapers.
Our crack investigative team will uncover the truth about 'grass-fed' beef:
Is it really good for the environment? And we'll take on the Big Green Lie
that the air quality in your home is better than it is outside. There are
many, many Big Green Lies out there that need our attention." Take a
sneak peak at http://www.biggreenlies.com and find out if your attitudes,
ideas and knowledge match those of our own men (and women) on the street!
