As a result of yesterday’s post about the Strawbridge family, I had quite a few of you ask where they can get the TV series, It’s Not Easy Being Green. I couldn’t find it for sale on DVD, which is a shame.

However, after a bit of searching I managed to find one episode of season one on YouTube, which will whet your appetite for more.
Here is the episode [http://youtu.be/LEsVbzLNft8]
The rest of the episodes can be found on the interwebs, however I can’t provide you with the link due to copyright laws. You will just have to find them yourself, sorry.
I reckon that there should be more of this type of programming, and less of those crappy renovation shows on telly (not that I watch them). It would really get people thinking about how easy it is to live a more sustainable lifestyle.
So what did you think of the show?
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
You’re welcome Catherine.
I’ve long had this idea for a reality TV show a bit like The Block gone green – a competition between ordinary, Australian households, to see how low they can get their footprint through retrofitting and lifestyle adaptions. They’d get money to invest for every tonne of carbon they reduce, but the winner would be determined by viewers votes for the coolest, most inspiring and replicable ideas.
Linda, a great idea. I would love to be a part of something like this. Who knows a TV producer? Jennifer?
