Netflix for the Eco-Conscious

Daily Greenz #150

Earth_cinema_circle_2
Earth Cinema Circle has taken the concept of Netflix, improved upon it, and greened it, to boot.  Their vast collection of environment-centered full-length films and shorts are available for a bimonthly membership fee.  The best part is that viewers get to keep all four films that they receive every other month.  Endorsed by The Conservation Fund, Earth Cinema is a great resource for those who want to learn more about the environment or for advocates who simply want to watch films about their area of interest.

Founders Gay Hendricks and Rick Ridgeway are truly committed to bringing more social and environmental awareness into American living rooms by carefully selecting and collecting the hundreds of earth-centric movies that are made every year.  It’s their goal to spread the word about great movies that educate, entertain, and inspire audiences, but don’t receive the kind of publicity that An Inconvenient Truth did.  For example, Garbage Warrior is currently highlighted on their website, which showcases the work of Michael Reynolds, an extraordinary architect who creates buildings out of garbage.

If you’re ready to be inspired, sign up for a bimonthly fee of $22.90 at www.earthcinemacircle.com.  You’ll also be happy to know that all shipments are carbon-neutral and 100% recyclable.
