The Green Screen
Today marks the first day of the Sundance Film Festival - an annual week-long event taking place in Park City, Utah. After the huge success of Al Gore’s documentary “An Inconvenient Truth” (which premiered at Sundance in 2006), the Festival is still doing what it can to set a green celebrity scene.
The Main Event Red Carpet Lounge will be giving out green goodies, Project Greenhouse (sponsored by Lexus Hybrid Living) will demonstrate ways to combine luxury living and a green lifestyle, including Eco-Fashion Closet, which will feature sustainable fashion from a variety of designers. The Festival itself has a page in it’s guide on ways to be green at the festival, and their online store sells a messenger bag is made from 2007 festival recycled banners with the Energy Passion Film theme.
The celebrity lifestyle isn’t for all of us, but we can learn a few green tips from these stars - paparazzi not included.
- Will Ferrell drives an electric car.
- Rocker Eve includes a “no plastic or Styrofoam” rule as part of her backstage demands.
- Leo DiCaprio uses a low flow toilet.
- And Tyra Banks only flushes when necessary.
- Jennifer Aniston takes three minute showers.
- Justin Timberlake practices carbon offsetting.
- Sting promotes eating locally and organically.
- Brad Pitt focuses on affordability, sustainability, safety for the new homes in New Orleans.
