Robert Redford’s the Green on Sundance Channel

Earth Day is tomorrow. An easy step is to watch Robert Redford’s series “the Green” Tuesday nights at 9 pm for the next few months on the Sundance Channel.

The show this week is called Fuel. There’s a half hour Sundance show “Big Ideas for a Small Planet” followed by a longer documentary on the subject.

We sat down Tuesday night to watch the half hour show thinking that would be enough, instead we stayed put on the couch for the entire documentary.

It’s fascinating stuff, keeps a positive (though realistic) tone and inspired us to change the way we live. Really.

Upcoming titles: Build, Cities, Wear, Eat, Drive, Furnish, Create, Kids, Paper or Plastic?, Sports, Work and Pray.

If you miss a Tuesday, check online for other broadcast times and webisodes.
