In the end, the show is all about promoting people who are actively trying to make a difference to the environment around them. This type of programming helps to inspire other children and teens to get involved and perhaps implement some of these community projects in their area or open them up to thinking about entirely different career paths. No matter what the impact, Eco Company is proving that teens and young adults can and are making an impact on the world around them. Plus, they give viable tips for how to make everyday life a little greener and sustainable in simple ways. It is important that these issues get screen time and as it is a way to convey new ideas and information to those who might not be up-to-date on them. Kudos to Eco Company for making these important environmental issues accessible to a new generation.

david-lettermanLate night talk show host and comic, David Letterman has been put under siege of late but we want to focus on things that actually matter first.  Letterman, in addition to being a great talent is also somewhat of an eco-friendly television pioneer having made a commitment to producing eco-friendly television programming through his production company World Wide Pants.

World Wide Pants, which produces The Late Show with David Letterman, partnered last year with EcoMedia. Rob Burnett, president and CEO of Worldwide Pants said that they “are extremely excited to partner with EcoMedia and look forward to creating [eco-friendly television]/entertainment that will hopefully not only be funny, but will also move viewers toward better, more sustainable practices in everyday life”.  We commend Dave and World Wide Pants for their commitment to the planet.  We hope more production companies follow their lead.

Now I suppose we have to address the hype.  Unless you have been under a rock and that rock does not have wifi, you probably heard about the plot to extort two million dollars out of Letterman. David himself boldly broke the story, with his trademark wit and humor. Since then, the media have been circling everyone connected to World Wide Pants like vultures in the desert. Dave, ever-protective of is privacy has now overtaken fame-mongers Jon and Kate as the lead story on TV, newspapers, and the ever-important blogosphere. On top of that, the speculation and salacious insinuations have pulled news magazines like The Insider down to a new low.  If you saw The Insider’s Michel Jackson coverage, you’ll know that is saying something.

Disney Channel Stars Unite to Promote Greener Lifestyles

disney-friends-for-change-project-greenWhat is corporate social responsibility? The concept of corporate social responsibility is simple; corporations conduct business in a way that is designed to have an overall positive impact.

In some cases it might be that the processes and materials used are eco friendly. In this case, Disney is redefining the concept of corporate social responsibility by making an eco friendly television commercial for their greener lifestyles project. This is part of Disney Channel’s “Disney’s Friends for Change: Project Green” (www.Disney.com) campaign, which is one of their corporate social responsibility initiatives that promote greener lifestyles. Other programs by the Disney Corporation include recycling and waste reduction projects.

According to the Disney’s Friends for Change: Project Green press release Disney calls these corporate social responsibility initiatives “a multiplatform environmental initiative that will help kids help the planet. Disney stars Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez, the Jonas Brothers and Demi Lovato are among the 29 young stars participating in outreach messages to debut on Disney Channel, Disney XD, Radio Disney and Disney.com.
