Green's Anatomy
Meredith. Izzie. O’Malley. McDreamy. McSteamy. McGreen–y?
In addition to keeping up with the latest love triangle on the set of Grey’s Anatomy, the cast and crew are keeping up with the latest trend in Hollywood … going green. They have recently banned plastic bottles, and have embraced the more eco–friendly thermos. In fact, according to a new cast member, the entire cast and crew each have a thermos that says Grey’s Anatomy Season 4, and are required to bring them on set (if they want to drink water, that is). This is good news considering that tap water is cheaper, more environmentally sound, and just as clean and healthy as bottled water.
And Grey’s Anatomy isn’t the only show that is giving back to Mother Earth. The Fox drama 24 is aiming to become the first carbon-neutral television program, switching their vehicles to biodiesel fuel, and their scripts to post–consumer recycled paper. Moreover, NBC devoted an entire week in November to their Green is Universal campaign, in which all their primetime line–up shows –– including 30 Rock, Chuck, Deal or No Deal –– had eco-themed episodes.
Unlike many trends in Hollywood, let’s hope this one sticks.
