Alter Eco

Popular actor and sustainable living activist Adrian Grenier, who's renovating a 1920's house in the historic, hip Los Feliz neighborhood, gathers green-conscious friends Angela Lindvall, Boise Thomas and Darren Moore to help make a stylish, earth-friendly difference in Los Angeles. First up, explore a farmer's market, taste-test organic wine and help Adrian's neighbors, a Spago chef and his wife, build a compost bin. At the end of the week, everyone celebrates the green team's first green-over with a meal and music at Adrian's.

The Green Team meets up with seminal graphic artist and designer Shepard Fairey to help reduce the footprint of his new Sunset Boulevard studio. When they find out Shepard's wife Amanda recently gave birth, they hit the shops for some earth and baby friendly products and give her nursery a loving green-over. When the work's done, it's off to Malibu for a wrap party at a beautiful sustainable cabin. This episode features Culver City eco-truck catering and delivery company called Green Truck. The Green Truck service is to be praised for both its scrumptious food as well as its innovative bent toward eco-friendliness.

It's all about recycling as Boise, Angela & Darren green-over the El Cid, a landmark restaurant/bar built by Hollywood pioneer D.W. Griffith, using salvaged materials. At the same time, Adrian helps artists working for non-profit Global Inheritance turn recycling bins into works of art and the old stucco comes down off Adrian's Dundee house and goes to a recycling station. Plus the green team breaks bread at high-end organic restaurant Akasha and wrap things up with a Good Listeners set at the newly-greened El Cid.
