Product Description
GoingGreen -- Every Home an Eco-Home delivers the basics of eco-living, narrated by Emmy-winner Tony Shalhoub. Mixing humor with everyday, affordable examples at home, GoingGreen tours the original Eco-Home with a group of middle-school kids who discover some simple, inexpensive ways to become more earth-friendly. Guided by eco-pioneer Julia Russell, Founding Director of the non-profit Eco-Home Network, the children learn how to conserve water through drip irrigtion, soaker hoses, gray water systems and xeriscape (drought-tolerant plants). They discover how and why to compost, what household hazardous waste may be lurking in their own homes, and how to conserve energy with sun pipes, solar hot water heaters and solar panels. The kids experience the delight of making their own organic tomato juice with tomatoes they picked off the vine in Eco-Home's backyard garden. They learn, hands-on, how to compost and have fun watching the progress of several serious-looking bugs that Julia describes as a crucial part of the 'composting team.' The kids ask questions and then come up with some of the answers! GoingGreen shows us how we can live earth-friendly lives on a limited budget in the middle of a city.
