Everything’s Gone Green with the Arrested Development Documentary Project! (2/06/08)

The banana stand might be yellow, but we have gone green.

We hereby pledge to offset our project's carbon footprint (carbon footprint defined) and zero out our environmental impact.  This means every flight, drive, gallon of gas, piece of paper, electricity for interviews, editing, e-mailing for the documentary will be offset 100%. To offset our carbon footprint we will engage in different environmental activities aimed at zeroing out the greenhouse gases produced while making the Arrested Development Documentary Project. In addition, we are going to have a good time and make new friends while doing it!

What are we doing to help?
We are going to be taking part in many different types of activities.  These activities will involve a variety of local, national and worldwide organizations to reach our goal.  Sure, we'll clean up some beaches and plant some trees, but we're going to also host local house parties and change the way people think about giving back to the earth. These activities will be held on a regular basis and we'll do our best to let you know about them beforehand. If you happen to be local to any of these activities, why not participate?

What can you do to help?
You are welcome to join any activity that we are hosting.  But don't stop there; we encourage you to take the lead in your own area.  We'll send out a list of ways that you can participate in the next week.  Your ideas are always welcome. And we'd love to hear your stories about how you are creatively reducing your own carbon footprint (Making Mother Earth proud).

What does this all mean?
We will track activities done by you and our crew and we will keep tabs of how we are doing to zero out our environmental impact.

Stay tuned for a list of environmental activities to jump-start your commitment to Mama Earth! Remember, it's not nice to disrespect your Mother!

I hope that all of you are as excited as we are about this new aspect of the project.
