Academy Awards Go Green

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)
It seems that even Hollywood's biggest events are trying to embrace environmentally friendly practices.
This year's Oscar ceremony will have a green "flavor" (sic):


    -With support from the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power, 100% of the energy used for the telecast, the red-carpet arrivals show and the Governors Ball will be supplied by renewable wind power.

    -All of the generators used for the production, for press support and the red carpet arrivals area are powered by a fuel mix that includes biodiesel.

    -The majority of vehicles made available by General Motors for use by production staff and presenters are zero-emission hydrogen-powered cars and hybrids.

    -Nearly all food service ware for all events associated with the Awards Presentation is either reusable or biodegradable/compostable.

    -The programs, invitations, RSVP cards, envelopes, parking passes and other printed materials include a minimum of 30% postconsumer recycled content.
