e² on PBS: The Economies of Being Environmentally Conscious

For those of you interested in sustainability in a global sense (triple bottom line etc), we would like to highlight the ongoing PBS series called e². The television series is touching on multiple topics to show a general state of sustainability today and forecast its future. Subjects of the program include: design, energy, water, food, transportation, and places. There is something for everyone no matter what your particular angle is on sustainability. Architects out there will find the 'design' subseries very interesting.

"e² is an ongoing PBS series about the economies of being environmentally conscious. Shot in high definition with cinematic lenses, e² chronicles global efforts to solve pressing ecological challenges. From energy consumption to design efficiency, policy to industry, the series documents the innovators whose work is reducing humans' impact on the environment. Interviews with experts, policymakers and pioneers across a variety of disciplines offer a firsthand account of the complex environmental challenges that we face, as well as the possibility that pragmatic solutions are within reach."
